Folders and Junk Mail

G

Guest

I have recently set up some new Folders in Outlook for each of my e-mail
addresses. I then set up a Rule to transfer e-mails to the appropriate folder
on receipt. E-mails now go into the appropriate folder rather than into the
inbox. This enables me to sort e-mails into different accounts without having
to set up different profiles. One consequence of this is that Junk Mail also
goes into these Folders rather than into the Junk mail Folder. Does anybody
know how to make Junk Mail go into the Junk Mail Folder whilst still applying
the rule to transfer all wanted e-mails into the appropriate Folder?

That should be the standard when you have applied Office 2003 Service Pack 1

Thanks Robert, I have now downloaded Service Pack 1 but Junk Mail still gets
moved to the new folders I have set up along with all other e-mails addressed
to the appropriate e-mail address (i.e. all e-mails addressed to
(e-mail address removed) are moved to folder 'colin' ) and no longer get transferred to
the Junk Mail folder. Do I have to amend any other settings?

Do you have the latest Junk E-mail filter installed as well? (Office Update
will report that you do not need to install any updates). Does it work when
you set your Junk E-mail setting higher or test it by adding a user to the
Blocked Senders?
