MS Office Forum / Outlook / New Users / February 2006automatic junk mail filter getting out of hand
Outlook automatically sends some email addresses the Deleted Items folder. It used to only be email that had "sales" in the return address. After some update some time ago Outlook has really started to go crazy with the auto filtering. So much so that I now have to look through my deleted items folder and add things to my Exception list every day. I spend half my time filtering junk mail, and the other half whitelisting valid email. Is there any way to stop the auto filtering? It's impossible to say without knowing your Outlook version.

Outlook 2002 does not have any junk filter worth spending time on. You'd be better off getting one of the free tools listed at http://www.slipstick.com/rules/junkmail.htm SignatureSue Mosher, Outlook MVP Author of Configuring Microsoft Outlook 2003 http://www.turtleflock.com/olconfig/index.htm and Microsoft Outlook Programming - Jumpstart for Administrators, Power Users, and Developers http://www.outlookcode.com/jumpstart.aspx >I am using Outlook 2002 and I do not see these options. > >> Actions>Junk E-mail>Junk E-mail Options to adjust the level of checking. > I am using Outlook 2002 and I do not see these options. Outlook 2002 doesn't have a Junk Mail filter that moves messages from Inbox to another. Outlook 2002's junk mail filter will only color the subject lines of messages containing suspected junk and you can turn that off easily with Tools>Organize. If you are having mail moved to the Deleted Items folder, then you must have a rule or add-in doing it. SignatureBrian Tillman |
