Hi, I'm running Outlook 2002 on win98.
I want to configure outlook to automatically move junk mail to a junk folder.
I'm confused between using the advise below ss shown in the Outlook help file
"Automatically delete, move, or color-code all junk e-mail messages
On the toolbar, click Organize.
Click Junk E-mail.
Select the options you want, and click Turn on for each set of options you choose."
and
using the rules wizard to configure the junk mail.
As you can see in the above help file, it makes no mention of the rules wizard. Is this an oversight on the help file.
Does one have to set up the rules wizard first and then turn on under organise?
The help file also suggests that Outlook automatically dreates a junk-email folder. There's no way I can get it to do this.
Lastly, I have crreated my own "junk" folder. Now when I right click an email and add it to the junk email list, it still remains in the inbox without being moved.
I have Outlook 2003 at home and when I add a message to the junk list it automatically move the message to the junk folder.
What am I missing here? is there a difference between operating systems or 2002v2003 or am I missing something entirely?
Thanks
