How do I disable Y! Mssenger or messages from non-friends in Mail?
Every time I open Yahoo! Mail, I get 5 spam instant messages. Every time. Exactly the same number as though that's the limit Yahoo Mail can show so it just fills up the limit with spam.
How do I disable this? Either turning off Messenger if that's where they are coming from or limiting messages to those from friends.
