Configuring Junk Mail Handling

• Junk Mail Handling enables you to have actions
  taken automatically on any junk mail you receive,
  such as deleting the mail automatically. Junk
  Mail Handling also enables you to block email
  from a certain address, or to allow email from
  others.

Junk Mail Handling Continued

• Junk Mail Handling is not enabled by default.
  When you enable it, a new folder, called the Junk
  Mail folder, is created in your Folder List box.
  Any mail that you deemed junk mail will be placed
  into this folder automatically upon arrival.
  Junk mail is identified from an address YOU
  specified as a junk address.

Difference between Junk List and Block List

• Junk List the email you specify will be sent to
  the Junk Mail Folder to be viewed at a later
  date.
• Block List the email you specify will be sent
  to the Trash Folder that will be deleted at the
  end of the day.

6
Adding Addresses to the Junk List

• You can configure both specific email addresses
  and domain names.
• Example of a domain name would be
  anyone_at_und.nodak.edu.
• If you configure domain names, then any email
  coming from any address in the domain will be
  considered junk mail and moved to the Junk Mail
  folder.

Trust List

• A Junk Mail Handling list to which you add
  addresses or domains from which you want to
  receive messages.
• Not really necessary. Maybe helpful if you
  wanted to block a domain but wanted a trust email
  address under that domain.
• I would not recommend using unless you are very
  sure what you are doing.
