I've now worked through the 98 emails that had been hidden from me. About 3 to 6 (I didn't count) were "genuine"-ish unwanted - about three phishing attempts, and three just unwanted junk mail (though these days they tend to pretend to be e. g. pushing subsidies rather than just selling their double glazing). OK, a lot of the rest were what might be called soft spam - things like newsletters, and similar, but from things I am signed up to or a customer for. Others, like energy statements, definitely were _not_ spam - and I've lost two of those, presumably because Greenby deleted them after a month. (Which make me wonder what else I've lost.) -- J. P.
