I suggest you open the Help menu and search on "junk mail." Here's the main
entry:


About the Junk Mail Filter
Junk mail, also called spam, is mail that is sent to many people or groups,
regardless of whether the recipients want to receive it. If you sometimes
receive junk mail, use the Junk Mail Filter to automatically identify and
manage such messages. The Junk Mail Filter uses known criteria to classify
messages you receive as junk mail. For example, if you receive a message
that includes signs of a forged e-mail address in the From box, the Junk
Mail Filter assigns that message to the Junk category, and displays it in
the Message list in the color assigned to the Junk category.
You can specify actions to perform on possible junk mail, including marking
such messages as read and running an AppleScript. If you want to apply
further actions to junk messages, such as filing them in a certain folder,
you can create a rule for such actions. Because it is possible for non-junk
messages to be mistakenly classified as junk, always review the messages in
the Junk category before deleting them.
To ensure that messages are not mistakenly classified as junk, you can take
the following precautions:
�  Add message senders to the Address Book. The Junk Mail Filter never
assigns messages from contacts in your Address Book to the Junk category.
�  Specify domains that you wish to exempt from the Junk Mail Filter. When
you enable the Junk Mail Filter, you can list domains that you trust. For
example, if you type "microsoft.com," a message from a person with an e-mail
address that contains "microsoft.com" is never classified as junk.
�  Use the Mailing List Manager to manage messages from a mailing list.
Messages that are handled by a mailing list rule are never classified as
junk.
