I just noticed in my junk mail that i have a TON of trade requests that i have never noticed or even seen before. I cant seem to find what email i need to out into my email account so it wont recognize these requests as "junk." And i have no idea how to respond to them. When i log in to my pin pics account i cant find where these pending requests are in their system. Help!
 
PENDING requests only apply to requests that YOU initiate and they disappear the morning they are processed thru PinPics to the people whom you offered pins to that day.

At this point, if they are OFFERS in your junk mail and they are more than a week old, I would disregard them. If they are less than a week old, I would reply with a NO, THANK YOU or if you are interested, I would ask IS THIS TRADE STILL AVAILABLE?

As far as the junk mailbox, make it a habit to check it every other day.
 
I would still reply to the ones you are interested in. Double check that the person still needs and has the pins involved, by going to the My Pinpics page and entering the IDs in the comparison search option. If that's good, just say you found out your requests were going to junk mail, and if they were still interested, you would like to trade. The reply rate is so low, that I think a lot of people would still appreciate a response.
 
I discovered that same thing a few weeks back. Now I always check my junk mail for request and there is always some trade offers in them. You just have to check it regularly and preferably daily so no good offers get away lol
 
I also just noticed the same issue. I don't think they used to go into my spam folder, but maybe I missed them all along. I would reply to any you are still interested in. I would still be interested in a trade I sent out even if it was a week old Maybe mine was one of them??
 
Mine always end up in spam. When I reply to them I add them to my contacts in my e-mail. Then if I get a trade request from the same person again it then goes to my inbox instead. I am sure I have missed some as my spam folder tens to collect about 100 emails a day. If I miss a day or two it gets rough sifting through all the garbage.
 
I always wondered how some people are always talking about the wacky trade requests they get from pin pics! Now I know first hand why! Holy Crap! Some of these people are either seriously delusional, or just honestly don't know any better!
 
If your mail system allows it, create a filter that puts anything with 'Pin Pics' or 'Pin Pics Trade' in the Subject: line into a special folder (or just in your Inbox). That should prevent the spam filter from eating them...

The subject line always seems to be the same, but the 'From' field is the Email of the person doing the trading, so you can't make an exception rule that way...
