because the MO is for you to give the conman remote access to your PC so that he can find out

and whilst here is there he accesses something else

your browser with saved passwords for banking access

I have an email address from the very early years of BT Internet which was published in White Pages and all sorts.

I used to get hundreds of SPAM messages a week, sometimes hundreds a day.

These days, nothing SPAMish at all.

The only worrying thing is that if incoming email is being effectively blocked, am I losing anything which isn't SPAM?

Something somewhere has changed radically.

Cheers

the question is just a ruse to let you give the conman access

Google seems to be very good at blocking spam without many false positives at all. When Virgin Media took back their email service from Google they were initially pretty poor at blocking spam, they still seem to pick up more false positives than Google, so I have to check the spam bin every couple of weeks to ensure that my mailing list subscriptions haven't been caught, which is what usually happens, probably from people who reported spam when they should have just unsubscribed.
