Does anyone know what would be the best way to quickly identify spam emails when finding them on your phone rather than clicking the actual senders name to see what the email is? It is blocked out on Iphones.

  Hi George,

  We recommend that if you receive an email on your phone that is suspicious or unexpected, wait until you can view the email on a computer before opening anything. If that is not possible, you should ask yourself: was I expecting an email about this from this sender? If you weren't expecting it, don't open it.

  On certain phones you can press and hold down the link to hover, but sometimes this can cause a preview to appear which accesses the linked website. So you should be careful when using this technique to hover.
  
  If anybody has any other suggestions for George, please chime in!
