vince3....I noticed your inquiry went un-addressed on page 2

 

I'll quote it here in the interest of saving folks from stepping back a page to read it.

 

"i didn't get this spam and i don't actually get any spam, but was curious to know if anyone knows where my spam might be in my email options, if it had been filtered, was wondering if it is automatically destroyed or if it is stored anywhere that i should probally check and destroy if i found any, or would it tell me that i had some or not." 

 

There are several reasons you may not have received this spam. (One being you have a horseshoe up yer  @ss ..and are just one lucky sumbitch...lol)

 

But as to Where you spam goes, depends on many things...What "filtering" (if any) you are using, and how effective it is,as well as security level settings.

 

Another, may be that your ISP has a filtering system in place and deals with spam in thier own way(Possibly  redirects it to a spam fighting organization or maybe bounces it back to the spammer, or Automatically deletes it)

 

This Scenario can be Baneful...or... Blessing...Sure...you don't get as much Spam...but you may also not be getting legitimate E-mail that you want.

 

An example of this might be...Not receiving EBots, or Newsletters from Renderosity, because your ISP has somehow flagged Rosity's domain a spammer...Which is not uncommon when a site of this size generates a lot of E-Mail activity, Deploys Newsletters, or the ISP notices a tremendous amount of E-Mail being processed from a particular domain....Many times...an end user (You) might even have to call your ISP and request that domain be taken off thier list of filtered domains.

 

If you are really REALLY curious as to where the SPAM you don't receive ends up...More information would be needed, such as what E-Mail Client(Reader) you use, What ISP you use,as well as any Spam filters you may have in place locally on your machine.

 

However...I would not worry much about it and just be glad you don't receive very much spam.

 

Hope this helps.
