I have check all junk mail options which seem to be correct but ineffective. Is there some way to enter a "white list" of all domains which should not be considered junk? All suggestions appreciated. mike

That is not a browser or firefox issue but a hotmail support issue that you need to contact them about.

Some e-mail providers have the option to sort incoming mail. Contact your e-mail provider for help.

Fred- thanks for your reply. I have tried a variety of methods to contact my e-mail provider (which is verizon.com; however they may have farmed it out to aol.com), in particular searching for the ability to create white list. So far, no joy. Can you suggest a way?

I don't know about other e-mail providers, but Hotmail.com (Microsoft) can be set to send all incoming mail to the Junk Folder except for mail addresses you flag as good.
