I am migrating from Mac to PC and have noticed in Outlook 2007 that there is
no toolbar button to mark an email as junk. All the other email clients from Microsoft (Windows Mail, Windows Live Mail, Entourage) all have a button for this purpose that marks an email as junk and moves it to the junk email folder when so marked. Am I missing something in the UI? Is there a way to do this other than right-clicking on the email, adding it to the blocked senders list and then manually deleting it or moving it to the junk email folder? Helppppppppp |

What Outlook has is the ability to add a sender address to the Blocked Senders list, not mark a message as junk. Outlook's junk e-mail filter is not trainable, so there is no "mark as junk" feature. To block a sender, right-click the message header, choose Junk E-mailAdd to Blocked Senders List. However, this action is close to worthless, since spammers generally do not reuse the sending address. It might be worth it to add the sending domain to the Blocked Senders list, but only marginally. -- Brian Tillman [MVP-Outlook] |

Personally, I use SpamBayes (available from sourceforge.net) as my added spam filter. It is trainable and places a couple of nice buttons on your toolbar (spam, not spam). Since installing it about 3 years ago, I may get one or two pieces of spam that slip through each month. Otherwise, it is nearly perfect.
