No one likes spam or junk email.
The Outlook Junk Email Filter doesn’t stop delivery of junk email messages, but does the next best thing—it moves suspected spam to the Junk Email folder. Outlook's Junk Filtering system works with all SUMail accounts and can sometimes cause unintended emails to appear in the Junk Filter.
The steps below will show you how you can tailor your Junk Email Filter to work the best for you. The instructions differ slightly between the Outlook application on your computer and SUMail on the web (also known as Outlook Web Access/OWA), so both instructions are included below.
Junk mail settings
The Junk Email Filter automatically evaluates each incoming message based on several factors. These can include the time when the message was sent and the content of the message.
To change the options for the Junk Email Filter:
For the Outlook Application on your computer
- From within Outlook, select the Home tab.
- Select the Junk drop down from the Delete section.
- Select Junk E-mail Options. Here, you will find the safe senders, blocked senders, and other junk email settings
For SUMail on the web (OWA)
- Log into your email in your browser of choice at http://sumail.syr.edu/.
