Question

Why does Mail think that emails to myself are junk mail?

Whenever I send an email, I always copy myself. From time to time though, Mail tells me it thinks that copy is junk. Why, and how can I cure this?

Mac Pro, OS X Mavericks (10.9.5), null

You can try Mail/Preferences/Junk Mail and reset it or click Advanced and write a rule to exclude your address.

I have tried that before, but it still happens. It's not as if it does it every time, just occasionally. Mail also rejects my passwords from time to time as well, then later accepts them.
