Microsoft security essentials junk mail filter


















If you belong to a mailing list or a distribution list, you can add the list sender to the Safe Recipients List. Messages sent to these e-mail addresses or domain names are never treated as junk, regardless of the content of the message. You can easily block messages from particular senders by adding their e-mail addresses or domain names to the Blocked Senders List.

When you add a name or e-mail address to this list, Outlook moves any incoming message from that source to the Junk E-mail folder. Messages from people or domain names that appear in this list are always treated as junk, regardless of the content of the message.

If you have existing lists of safe or blocked names and addresses, you can import them into Outlook. You can add a message sender or recipient to any Junk E-mail Filter list by right-clicking the message in your Inbox or other mail folder, pointing to Junk E-mail, and clicking on the desired option. This list enables you to block e-mail addresses that end in a specified top-level domain. To block unwanted e-mail messages that appear in another language, you can add encodings to the Blocked Encodings List.

This list enables you to block all e-mail addresses in a specified language encoding, also known as a character set. The remainder is sent in various other international encodings. The Blocked Encodings List lets you filter out unwanted international e-mail that is displayed in languages that you don't understand. Messages that have unknown or unspecified encodings will be subject to filtering by the regular Junk E-mail Filter.

All e-mail accounts in the same Outlook e-mail profile share the same Junk E-mail settings and lists. If you have both an Exchange account and a Windows Live Mail account, for example, each account has its own Junk E-mail folder.

However, if you have both an Exchange account and a POP3 account, junk e-mail for both accounts is located in the Junk E-mail folder for the Exchange account. If you change your profile, you should export a copy of the Junk E-mail Lists before you make the changes, and then import the information into Outlook.

This way, you will avoid the need for re-creating the Junk E-mail Filter Lists. Using Outlook in a Microsoft Exchange environment - much more common in business than with home or personal e-mail - offers another layer of capabilities and tools to combat junk e-mail. This means that if a sender appears in your Blocked Senders List, then messages from that sender are moved to the Junk E-mail folder on the server, and they are not evaluated by Outlook. They are available from any computer, but only if you have the Junk E-mail feature enabled in Outlook Web Access.
