Hi, I use Eudora v. 7.1. Eudora has always worked fine with "Junk
Mail" but from a little time it works badly.
Now many junk mails go into Junk buzon. I have always to drag them
maually into "In" buzon.
Can you tell me how I have to configure Eudora precisely? I need the
config. of "Junk Mail" and "Junk Mail Esxtras" pages.
Thanks a lot.

In "Paid" mode, with this option enabled?
[x] Automatically place junk in Junk mailbox?

When you open your Junk folder,
what sort of "scores" do you find in the "Junk score" column?

What are the first ten lines of your file "UserJunkDB.txt"
that you will find in the "Plugins" folder within your "Data" folder,
the path of which is seen in "Help" | "About Eudora"?

Do you have any filters whose action is to put mail into the Junk folder?

Sure, I always do it, but Eudora now has lost its memory. I don't know
beacuse I have this problem.

I see 90 "score" and always high scores.

I attach you some lines of "UserJunkDB.txt" file

Gremlin found! ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

When expressed as a 32-bit integer,
that large number acts like a _negative_ value,
which causes "junk scoring psychosis" :)
