Hi,

Under the Junk E-mail Options, I turned on the highest level of filter.
It works fine except that many of the junk emails are still sent to my
inbox folder. These junk emails are prefixed with "SPAM:" in their
subjects. I still need to look for them and manually delete them. Is
there a way to have the system to move all of them to a junk folder or
the "Deleted Items" folder. So far Outlook has not mistakenly marked
any of my personal email as "spam". I simply want to trust it and
don't' want to pay attention to these junk emails in my inbox. Please
advise. Thank you for your help.

Tony

You should be able to use a regular Outlook rule to handle those.

Outlook never relabels mail. Something besides Outlook is adding the "SPAM"
prefix, so apparently you have two junk filters: Outlook's and a third
party's.

Create a rule to either delete or move to the Junk E-mail folder any message
whose subject contains "SPAM:"

Hi Brian,

I don't know what the 3rd party's software is. I will talk to my IT guy
to find out. I tried the rule you suggested but it didn't work. I
think the 3rd software comes after the Outlook filter. Thanks for your
help.

It's probably not a software that adds the *SPAM* prefix but your mail
provider's junk filter.

I am sure the third software/service comes before Outlook.

Are you using Outlook as an Exchange2003 client? If yes than you can solve
this issue at server level without configuring per mailbox rules. This is
done with the help of IMF Tune:
