Recently, I’ve received a couple of spam event invitations in Calendar on my Mac. The most recent had only Chinese text, and recurred at 5:46am every day.  I am able to decline these by clicking on the invitations button in the toolbar (that only appears when an invitation comes in). However, ideally I’d like to not receive these spam invitations at all.  As I’ve never received a genuine invitation through Calendar, I thought I might be able to turn off the invitation feature. However, I can’t see any controls for this in Calendar preferences or the Internet Account system preferences.  Through what mechanism do these invitation arrive? If I understood what mechanism it was, I might be able to turn it off. I have two Calendar accounts enabled: iCloud, and Facebook. I can’t see anything in my e-mail, so I presume they’re not regular e-mail spam.  Since first writing this question, I’ve had a similar invitation come through in Reminders:

Today I've suddenly received spam calendar invitation for $19.99 Ray Ban sunglasses (never subscribed, checked, searched or visited any related site, so clearly spam) and it has other visible email accounts within the invitation. I'm wondering if I should be worried whether my accounts been compromised or a simple email from anywhere just plops this in my calendar without review. Questions to be answered:  What should I check/setup in order to make sure my iCloud account is safe? How can I delete this invitation without sending a notification to the sender, so as to prevent them from knowing my email address is live? How can I prevent these notifications in the future?  Here's an image:

I want to auto delete email from the spam folder if they are from a particular domain, is it possible?  For example, if an email message is marked as SPAM and it is from example.com, don't keep it in the SPAM folder  I want to keep my SPAM folder clean so it will be more easy to check if I missed some important mails.

Whenever I send a mail from myaccount@example.com to a Gmail account, Gmail treats it as spam.  I'm talking about the one e-mail I send to a prospect after I've met him (it is surely non-spam mail). It's happened several times already:  "Hey!, you never sent that e-mail you promised me" the prospect says.  "How come...? I did send it. Check the spam e-mail" I answer.  "Oh,  there it is..."  I think it has to do with example.com not being a well-known domain.  How/Where should I complaint about this?

We're considering adding favorite notifications to the global inbox, and are looking for feedback on the idea (as we're not completely sold on it).  But first, some history.  Favorites are kind of like bookmarks, in that they're kept in a handy centralized place.  They also follow you across browsers.  Ok, ok... "bookmarks, on the internet" is not the most compelling feature, but Favorites also opted you into notices for those questions as if you were the owner (edits and new answers, at least).  This was probably the most confusing part (though a  feature) of the old envelope behavior judging by erroneous bug reports, so a way to opt out of this .  Now, favorite updates go nowhere.  But we could* put them into the inbox.  Here's how we envision this feature working:   Every current user has their "notify me on favorite changes" preference cleared (new users start with it cleared). The first time someone favorites a question, they're prompted to opt-in to favorite notices. Whenever a question is commented on or answered (or, possibly, edited) a new notice is pushed into the inbox of users who have favorited it, and have opted in.   Opt-in would be per-site, and it would remain possible to opt-out from your profile page.   This is not a final design, but the basic idea is correct  As I mentioned above, we're not 100% sold on this idea.  We've had a policy to date that nothing goes into the inbox that isn't specifically targeted at a user; this would be tweaking that policy.  *We could also put changes into their tab on the user page, but that reduces their visibility.

I'm having an odd and inconsistent problem where certain inbox notifications are re-appearing within my inbox every few days, even though the date/time for the notification is a week, two weeks, a month, two months or even three months ago. Unfortunately my screenshot didn't take so I don't have a screenshot at this time. The messages I'm getting within the inbox that are repeating though are posts that have been migrated, moderator elections, and other non-answer related items.  Usually a page refresh or clicking on the inbox notification badge, opening the inbox dropdown, and clicking outside of the dropdown clears the messages out of the timeline. Yet every week or so they all re-appear again.    Update I finally was able to capture a screenshot. This was taken this morning at 8:06am. Even though I have an inbox notification of "7", you can see that the "newest" inbox notification dates from May 22nd and the other 6 "new" notifications are from as far back as Feb 2014.

I am having a bit of an issue here with the default mail application in mac OS El Capitan. I am using my gmail account on the mail client and it is autosaving drafts when I compose messages ... I have done some searching and found various answers saying that I can turn it off by going to Mail --> Preferences --> Accounts and after selecting the account in "Mailbox Behaviours" box just uncheck the "Store draft messages on the server" check box ... as explained in this tutorial that I have found  ... But there is a issue ... I don't have that option in my preferences .. please see this screenshot of my preferences screen.    I am really confused on this ... Oh forgot to tell this is my first Mac experience. Looking forward to your answers. Thanks :)  UPDATE: I have upgraded to macOS Sierra ... but the issue still persists ...

I awoke this morning to a spam flag on a site I moderate, and noticed this when I went to read the post.    Notice answered&lt;/a&gt;, which I imagine isn't meant to have the &lt;/a&gt; there.  I also confirmed that this displays asked&lt;/a&gt; for other types of flags (namely, closed without comment).   I looked around for a duplicate of this but can't seem to find it, so maybe it's a recent change?

Is it possible to disable drag and drop event in SharePoint calendar? I looked all available properties in SPCalendar control but I didn't find any.   Rendered Javascript has a parameter in factory class which control this behavior but not sure if I can access it through code behind or Javascript:  SP.UI.ApplicationPages.CalendarContainerFactory.create(document.getElementById('ctl00_m_g_67e2a6e7_070b_4dbd_8082_cdb772ec594e_ctl00_ctl01_ctl00_ctl00'),{ctxId:'WPQ1',dataSources:[{id:'00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000',name:'',color:'',formUrl:'\u002fLists\u002fCorpCalendar\u002fDispForm.aspx',primary:true, **disableDrag:true**}],userInfo:{current:{id:'27',loginName:'ACME\\Test',displayName:'Test',email:'Test@acme.com'}},enablePeople:false,enableResource:false,usePostBack:false,canUserCreateItem:true,sharedPickerClientId:null,reservationContentTypeId:'0x0102004F51EFDEA49C49668EF9C6744C8CF87D',aM12String:'12:00 am',serviceUrl:'\u002f_layouts\u002fCalendarService.ashx'},'day','',[{"Options":41,"Table":null,"DatePicker":null,"Dates":["12/12/2011","12/13/2011"],"RangeJDay":[150094,150094],"Navs":null,"Items":{"Data":[[0,1,2,150094,150094,3,3,4,5,12,0,30,0,0,0,2,6]],"Strings":["1158","Test Meeting","","12/12/2011","12:00 pm","12:30 pm","0x7fffffffffffffff"]}}]);    Thanks in advance.

When you send a group text message in iOS, it appears as if you automatically opt in to receive any and all replies to that message. Is there a way to avoid being included in group replies? Is there a way to remove oneself from a group chat?

Is there any way to stop the Gmail app from popping up a notification if you get an email from a specific sender?  My specific case is that I get a lot of emails from a careers site that I'm not usually interested in reading immediately so don't need to be notified about them. There's a  on the site but this is asking for the opposite.

I'm just starting to use Windows 7 and I want to know how to make my Outlook reminders pop up and show themselves prominently.  They keep opening discreetly, as just another window in the Outlook stack on the taskbar.  As a result, I keep overlooking them because they pop up behind everything else.  How do I make them less easy to overlook?  (Clearly, one usually doesn't want obnoxious apps that push themselves to the forefront.  But there are a few places where such behavior is desirable, and Outlook calendar reminders are one of them.)

The DivX player has installed a junk notification on my Mac saying:     A new version of DivX is available.   as shown below:    This stupid notification bumps up every hour or so, and there is no way to turn it off (there's no disable option when I click on it's icon). I don't want and don't need their software. I can't see the player in my Notification panel.    Question: How to prevent DivX from spamming me with notifications?

I know someone or the other has asked about disabling ⌘Q, but I like the shortcut, and I use it often. However, I use an email client called Airmail that unfortunately does not keep a service (for notifications) running in the background when it is quitted. However, if I press the close button a service runs in the background, allowing me to receive notifications.  But since I have a habit of pressing ⌘Q all the time to close apps, I was looking into a way I could disable it for only Airmail.  Anyone know of a what to do this?

Is there a way to stop Mail from automatically selecting messages? For example when I delete a message, it will immediately select the next one and mark it read. Then if I don't want to read the message yet, I need to mark it as unread.

This question is a followup to 2013's  by Tom Brito.   Summary  I want to unsubscribe from notifications about some questions when they are either   already answered old   Back in 2013 the tenor of the comments was “It is not possible, by design”, but by now it is becoming a spam-problem for me.   Background  Unless I have asked a new question within the last few days, by now the majority of inbox notifications I receive are no longer relevant to me. This can be because there was already a satisfactory answer or because I asked it so long ago, that it simply has lost relevance since. Yet I still receive notifications about new answers or comments.   Obviously I wouldn't want to flag such questions for closing, as new answers may very well still be relevant to others.   The old question received  as a possible answer (as a comment). This does however seem like overkill – also I don't see how either case warrants administrator intervention.   Hence I'd appreciate an option to unsubscribe from the notifications. Since having this option unconditionally would invite poor quality questions that are quickly abandoned, prerequisites such as a minimum age of the question or having an accepted answer could be required.
