Since Ohio University uses a web-based spam filter, there is no need for Outlook to do additional spam filtering for us. If Junk E-mail filtering is left on in Outlook people may notice they are missing e-mails and it takes awhile to figure out they have been placed in the Junk E-mail folder by Outlook. We recommend everyone disable this feature.

Disable it as follows in Outlook 2010:

1. In Mail, on the Home tab, in the Delete group, click Junk, and then click Junk E-mail Options
2. On the Options tab, select No Automatic Filtering
3. Click OK
   

Disable it as follows in Outlook 2007:

1. On the Tools menu, click Options
2. On the Preferences tab of the Options dialog box, under E-mail, click Junk E-mail
3. Select No Automatic Filtering
4. Click OK
   

Disable it as follows in Outlook 2011 for Mac:

1. On the Tools menu, click Junk E-mail Protection
2. Choose None
3. Click OK
