How to stop junk mail on apple iphone

The never-ending battle against junk mail! Here are the steps to help you reduce or stop junk mail on your Apple iPhone:

Method 1: Report Junk Mail to Apple

  1. Open the Mail app on your iPhone.
  2. Tap on the "Edit" button in the top-right corner of the screen.
  3. Tap on "Junk Mail" from the menu.
  4. Tap on "Report Junk" next to the unwanted email.
  5. Confirm that you want to report the email as junk.

This will help Apple's algorithms learn to recognize similar emails as junk and move them to the "Junk" folder.

Method 2: Use the "Junk Mail" Filter

  1. Open the Mail app on your iPhone.
  2. Tap on the "Settings" icon (looks like a gear) in the top-left corner of the screen.
  3. Scroll down and tap on "Mail".
  4. Tap on "Junk Mail".
  5. Toggle the switch next to "Junk Mail Filtering" to the "On" position.
  6. Choose the level of filtering you prefer: "Low", "Medium", or "High".

The Mail app will then automatically move suspected junk emails to the "Junk" folder.

Method 3: Unsubscribe from Mailing Lists

  1. Open the Mail app on your iPhone.
  2. Find an email from a company or organization you no longer want to receive emails from.
  3. Tap on the "Reply" button (looks like a curved arrow).
  4. Tap on "Unsubscribe" at the bottom of the screen.
  5. Follow the instructions provided by the company to unsubscribe.

Method 4: Use a Third-Party Email Client

If you're not satisfied with the built-in Mail app, you can try using a third-party email client like Microsoft Outlook, Gmail, or Spark. These apps often have more advanced junk mail filtering features.

Method 5: Register with the National Do Not Mail List

While this won't stop all junk mail, registering with the National Do Not Mail List (DNML) can help reduce the amount of mail you receive. You can register online or by calling (888) 567-8688.

Remember, it's essential to regularly check your "Junk" folder to ensure that legitimate emails aren't being mistakenly filtered out.
