I misspoke -- it *was* putting good mails into the junk folder. Thanks
for alerting me.

So, BayseIt is definitely not working. I've tweaked the settings and
guess I'll wait for the onslaught of spam on Monday to see if that
helps.

Thanks again.

I've reset that option and hope it will now work! Thanks, Roelof.

I haven't trained with ham yet, no, since it hasn't put "good" mails
into the junk folder either. In other words, it seems to be doing
nothing at all. As Roelof suggested, maybe I should give it a little
more time ( or should I... why not just install something that works
"out of the box")?

But I will try some ham training as you suggest. Thank you so much for
your help.
