Overview:
In much the same way that
retailers and businesses use mailing lists of postal addresses to send potential
clients catalogs and other information, others
use e-mail messages as a direct marketing tool. If you do not want to receive
these messages, Microsoft Outlook can automatically move them from your Inbox
to your Deleted Items folder or to any other folder you specify. Outlook
creates a folder called Junk Mail, where you can move junk e-mail and then
review it
before deleting. Or, you can have junk or adult content e-mail delivered
to your Inbox, but color coded so you can easily identify it. The list of
terms
that Outlook uses to filter suspected junk e-mail messages can be found in
a file named Filters.txt.
You can also filter messages
based on the e-mail addresses of junk and adult content senders, allowing
you to move or delete all future messages from a particular sender. You can
review the Junk Senders list and add and remove e-mail addresses from it.
