Junk Mail

[MSNews]

Hi,

I'm running Outlook 2003 and have been adding junk emails to my junk email
box. I purposely added a known receipient to my junk email and when the
receipient sent me another email it came through.
Is there a setting in this version of Outlook that I have to set to make
sure that Outlook looks first at my junk email filter before passing it on
to my inbox?

I am connected to Exchange 2000.

Thanks
Steve

Adding sender addresses to your Blocked Senders list (there is no such thing
as a "junk email box") is a highly ineffective method of fighting SPAM.
Most SPAM senders change the address with every mailing so that there spew
appears to come from a different source every time. That could be why it
still shows up in your Inbox.
