I'm using Outlook 2007 and access my mailbox with an IMAP connection. I'm
using the built in junk mail filter but I find that mail in my inbox isn't
filtered until I click on the message in the message list. Is there any way
to make Outlook automatically filter junk mail and place it in the junk
folder when using IMAP?

Thanks for any advice on this.

Configure your send/receive group to download the entire message and not
just the headers.

Thanks Brian. I've made that change now and hopefully this will sort it out.
