I just changed to IMAP and the Outlook 2003 spam filter that was
working so well for the POP account seems not to apply to the IMAP

all sorts of spam arrives and stays in the in-box. If I then turn on
the POP settings and re-retrieve the same mail, it arrives and the
spam starts flying into the junk folder.

I do not believe the Outlook Junk E-Mail filter operates on IMAP accounts.

Brian:

Your above reply being many months old; do you know if Outlook has been
updated
to have IMAP and the Junk Mail Filter to work together? I currently am
having similar porblems in attempting to get my new Outlook IMAP
configuration to recognize my Junk Mail Filter which I have set to HIGH. I
have had Outlook installed for 5 days. I originally had the Filter set to
LOW and was getting no mail in my Junk Mail Folder. I then set it to HIGH a
couple of days ago. Still nothing in my Junk Mail Folder. E-mail in and out
are working fine in Outlook.

I am getting several hundred Junk Mails a day currently. I have started a
Blocked Senders List; which now has several hundred entries in it. Still
nothing is reaching my Junk Mail Folder.

Can you provide me with some guidance in this matter?

Thanks,

Ron
