For the longest time, i did not get any spam or very litte.
All of a sudden, I got flooded with them. So I edited the spam settings as recommended to have the spam folder emptied immediately without me having to even look at it. Well, it doesn't work. I still get spam, not much, but it's supposed to be empty....so why am I getting it if they say it's emptied immediately...?

I started having the same problems about a week ago. So far, AT&T no help. I had Delete Immediately set for years. Now all spam comes through. I noticed a lot of other people are starting to complain about this on the web.

Thanks, in a sense I am glad others have that problem too.
I tried all over yahoo and att for help since none of this is my fault. Yahoo finally sent me an email telling me to contact ATT which is totally impossible. You get the go-around all over, and there is no solutioon for that.....
I may have to switch to gmail. Too bad as I like the att yahoo features.

I am experiencing this same problem. Can't seem to fix it. On the phone with AT&T now. Hoping to get some resolve. Have any of you?

No, I haven't even gotten to the phone number part, so I am so glad you are doing that. Would you kindly tell the rest of us what happened or tell us how to contact them without any go-arounds, I so hope to get this solved.
Thanks so much, everybody, for the feedback, nice to know one is not alone....

Well, they emptied it, so I guess it's true, they empty it once a week now....
Thanks to all for the help, and also to ATT for emptying it.
