dual post of "setting folder option" problem
 

Hi, when I right click on my Deleted Items folder or my "Junk E-mail" I have
the option to "empty" the folder, however, in my "Spam" folder, like all the
other folders I created, I don't have that option. But I want that option.
I would greatly appreciated any help with this.

Thank you,

Gordy

Outlook does not create a "Spam" folder. It creates Junk Mail folders. You
may have a third party software that does this - in that case, apply your
suggestion to the makers of that software.

I realize this. I am just wondering if there is a way that I can get the
"spam" folder to give me the option to "empty" it the same way the delete
and junk mail folder can.

The reason for Junk E-mail and Deleted Items mail folders have the 'Empty
Junk E-mail Folder' and 'Empty Delete Items Folder' in the pop-up context
menu is that Microsoft programmed it that way in Outlook 2003. The Junk
E-mail and Deleted Items mail folders are designated mail folders in
Outlook.

User created mail folders in Outlook 2003 do not have this feature.
