Question about FastMail Spam Settings

Hi there,

i have set up my FastMail settings as per instructions - making sure that custom is selected and that Move, Discard, and Add score are all unchecked.
In your screenshot for that, it doesn’t show it but there is another check box - Mark Spam as Read (Email identified as spam will be automatically marked as read.)

My question is should I leave that box unchecked? That seems to be the default.

Kind Regards

Thanks for mentioning that. It looks like this may be a new option since the instructions were written. You want it to be unchecked because most mail clients won’t apply SpamSieve (or other rules) to messages that are already marked as read.

That’s great, Michael. Thanks for getting back to me.

Best Wishes.
