Nothing to do with JavaScript. Everything to do with how mail is handled and delivered. This is why all of my mail accounts are POP-based, rather than web-based.
I have a smart geek hubby; when I set up my Gmail account, he set it for no forwarding, POP and IMAP all disabled. That's really all you need to do. All the filters do is give different files for the emails, at least that's my impression.
It pays to have a professional security person look over your settings and accounts if you've a lot to lose in either email accounts or web-sites.
