SUMMARY: Increase the level of junk e-mail filtering Outlook 2007 performs. Or, disable filtering if too many false positives are found or if you are using a third-party solution.
Microsoft Outlook 2007 automatically attempts to filter some junk e-mail from your Inbox to keep it from getting clogged with phishing attempts, spam, and other unwanted messages.
As the amount of unsolicited e-mail constantly rises, you may find Outlook's default filtering level ineffective in dealing with the swarm of junk e-mail. You can increase the filter level so that more junk is caught at the risk of filtering some legitimate e-mail. On the other hand, if too much legitimate e-mail is moved to the Junk E-Mail folder, you can disable filtering altogether, with one caveat. Or, if you only send and receive e-mail to/from certain individuals you can move all other e-mail to the Junk E-Mail folder.
1. Select "Tools" - "Options".
2. The "Options" multi-tabbed dialog box appears. Make sure the "Preferences" tab is selected.
3. Click the "Junk E-mail" button.
4. The "Junk E-mail Options" multi-tabbed dialog box appears. Make sure the "Options" tab is selected.
5. From here, underneath "Choose the level of junk e-mail protection you want", click one of the four radio buttons:
* No Automatic Filtering - If you do not trust Outlook 2007 to filter your e-mail, or if you are using a third-party filter, choose this option. If you have blocked a particular sender, their e-mail will still be marked as junk.
* Low - E-mail that Microsoft claims is "the most obvious junk e-mail" is filtered.
* High - Catches a lot of junk e-mail, but this may result in some false positives, so check your Junk E-mail folder on a regular basis.
* Safe List Only - Unless an e-mail address or domain is on your Safe Senders / Recipients Lists (see the "Safe Senders" and "Safe Recipients" tabs to add addresses to these lists), it should not reach your Inbox.
