    Outlook 2007 Junk/spam filter with IMAP

    I am getting 50+ spam emails to my pesonal account. I can only assume that they are spamming me from my domain name

    Outlook has a built in Junk filter, but it never picks up mail from an IMAP folder. If i retrieve the same email via pop, then it sorts it fine. I've tried using third party implementations of SpamAssassin, but I cant find one that will work

    Any thoughts on what I am doing wrong?

    probably some limitation of the junk filter in Outlook. The (Auto-)archive feature doesn't work either with IMAP. I guess MS doesn't want IMAP to be too useful as compared to Exchange, as that's where they make a lot of money.

      IMAP is designed to be a reflection of the Exchange server's contents. You could always create server rules to do your filtering.
