I have the anti-spam filter activated at my outlook but it covers only the inbox. What should I do in order to make it covers all the folders at my outlook?

Do you mean the standard Junk E-mail folder? Mine (office 2003) just automatically diverts anything "spammy" into it. Never even have to worry about it gettting in to other folders.

Hi Ken,

I use outlook 2003 also but as I created a rule to move all messages that where sent to a certain account into a folder, those messages are not tested by the antispam filter and I would like to know how to make them be.

I love it: Spambayes (http://starship.python.net/crew/mhammond/spambayes/)

Hi Anne,

do you use it on Outlook 2003? I didnt see anything at that say stating it runs on Outlook 2003.

Yep, I do.

I was worried I'd lose Spambayes when I upgraded. Not a problem at all. :D

I have been using that "experimental" software for over a year. :)

I expected it to begin working immediately. But some emails---it takes twice or three times before the software REALLY begins seeing it as spam. I think it's 'cause we see it the same, but somewhere *underneath*, it is diffferent, and the software sees it. Some things began working immediately. I really like it. It's only crashed my Outlook maybe twice in the past year. Not bad at all.
