I keep getting this message in Hotmail for e-mails from BarackObama.com. Anyone else?

1. Unbelievable, and yet, typical.

2. It's common practice for a spam filter to flag any piece of mail with a large address list.

Since that is exactly how spam is sent.

Also, political e mails often have hypertext links for donations or signing petitions or whatever, which also sets off red flags in the spam filter.

Best way to avoid this is to add barackobama.com to your "whitelist"/safe senders list/whatever it's called on your software.

5. BarackObama.com is already on my safe list.

It goes directly into my Inbox. I have been getting e-mails from them for at least a year, and this is the first time this has happened.

3. They do that for any new senders

If there's any change in the email address, it's automatic. Has been for me, at least.

Can you not add the sender to your trusted list?

4. Use gmail I find their spam filter to be superior.

Does hotmail have an email address where you can advise them of "mistakes" in the smartscreen?

6. What happens with my email system is if I get several

emails and do not respond back to the sender's email address I get it as spam. I go to the message section and put the email address in my "safe" list and it comes thru OK. I at first didn't realize that. But do you read in some emails where they tell you to do that.
