Has anyone experienced this? While I was working in PayPal, I noticed 2 postings that had paid but I hadn't gotten the end of auction/buy it now sale notice from eBay. I did some reaseach and lo and behold they did sell. This morning 11/18 the notices were in my spam folder. (that is another story - some ebay and some paypal go both places, so I check both like 2 mailboxes.)Yes I am on AOL and no I am not going to switch. The point is the notices came 3 days late. That could be a diaster and heart failure in many aspects. So has this happened to anyone else??? Louise

I notice also that my roadrunner treats ebay as spam but not PayPal. I am not at my computer so I can't check but I think if you have outlook express you can change your preferences. Maybe someone can come in and help you. It is something in Tools and your internet preference. I also notice that if I receive a first email from someone it goes into my spam folder but once I open it the next time they send one it comes into my regular inbox.

I have received notices from BOTH ebay and Pay Pal as much as a week later neatly filed in my mail as if they had been there since day one. I have also received them over a week late, right on the top of the incoming. In other words, never trust them to send a notice! I check both the Myebay page and Pay Pal completely, once daily, looking for stuff that has happened with no notice.

Whenever an email from a valid source (such as Ebay or Paypal) lands in your spam folder, do not open it there. Click the "this is not spam" button and it will send it over to your regular inbox. After about three times, your spam filters will "learn" to send future emails from that domain to your inbox instead of the spam folder.
