Outlook 2003 Rules and Junk E-mail
Hi There is a rule you can apply. Go to Outlook/tools/options/email/junk
mail/ and tick permanently delete/apply Trust this helps "Brian Tillman" wrote: rshiras wrote: You're right about how Microsoft operates. That doesn't chage the fact that there shoulc be an option added to run a rule before the junk e-mail filter, because without that option, Microsoft is aiding and abetting spammers. I do agree that there should be a setting. You said, however, there "must" be one. Those two words aren't synonymous. -- Brian Tillman |

Outlook 2003 Rules and Junk E-mail
Yes, Paul, Microsoft is playing God with e-mail, forcing us to view porn.
This is an unfortunate error in "judgement" that ends up supporting spammers in the long run. There should be an option to override the junk e-mail filter with message rules. "PaulB" wrote: I found the following statement on the Outlook Tips web site (http://www.outlook-tips.net/archives...20040209.htm): "Outlook 2003 SP1 runs rules before junk e-mail filter. Update your installation if you haven't already." In my case, this isn't so; in fact, it's just the opposite. I have verified that I have Outlook 2003, SP1, and I've already done a "Detect and Repair". Still, the junk e-mail filter seems to have priority over my rules. The #1 rule in my list is to permanently delete messages with "porn" words in the subject or body and stop processing more rules. I still end up with such messages in my Junk E-mail folder. Any ideas on why this may be? (POP3 account). Thanks. |
