Orange free anti-spam service
Anybody who’s got an Orange email address can use our anti-spam service, free of charge. It automatically filters your incoming emails, and ‘tags’ any messages it recognises as spam – so it’s easy for you to delete them, without opening them up.
Our anti-spam service works with both Outlook Express and webmail. To set your preferences, just check the anti-spam settings.
Now and then spam emails might slip past our filters. If this happens with webmail, you can report it to us with the ‘spam’ button. This helps us look for similar messages in the future.
We’re sorry to hear that – perhaps one of the related articles below might be of more help to you.
To enable us to improve this site, we’d appreciate it if you’d take a moment to let us know what you felt was wrong with this article.
