Are you quite sure about that?

 

Running Office 2007 here (and outlook), and never ever noticed the [SPAM] (well 
- actually I did, that was my ISP before I managed to disable that) - at least 
on my machine, Outlook 2007 does NOT do that.. (and yes.. it *is* handling the 
SPAM for me (more or less acceptable), since I cannot get SpamBayes to work (w/ 
OLK2k7 under XP)).. so are you sure your ISP (or your antivirus program? Trend 
Micro Internet security has (or at least used to have) an option (apart from a 
COM add-in) to annotate the subject w/ [SPAM]) is not interfering?

 

 

Oops.. reaction to wrong person (sorry about that) - but still to the list, so 
probably not a problem after all.

 

Regards,

 

John lots

Wow. Makes you wonder which is worse, the spam or Outlook's attempts to deal 
with it. I wish I could help, but I can't.

Office2007's JunkMail filter pre-pends the [SPAM] tag to a subject line when it 
thinks its Junk. If one moves the email back into Inbox (or anther box), you 
have to click a button, "Mark Not As Spam". I was able to hide the buttons.

Thanks for the feedback. I often wonder how my messages will fare when I send 
them out into the wide world with a lunch box and a bus ticket. It's good to 
know when one has been able to do some good work.

 

I don't understand what you mean by "to not have the [SPAM] tag." Could you 
send a screen shot showing what you want to get rid of? I have a "Spam" column 
in Outlook's message list, but I think I had to go through a manual process to 
create it.

I copied your approach; Filtering Inbox and JunkMail. It seems to work fine. My 
next gripe would be to not have the [SPAM] tag....

 

Overall, it seems to work ok. Thanks for the suggestion.

I don't think there's a way to kill Outlook's filtering altogether. I use a 1.1 
alpha version of SpamBayes to work around this. The alphas allow you to tell 
SpamBayes to move ham as well as spam. I set up SpamBayes to move certain spam 
and possible spam into folders that I create for the purpose and move ham into 
my inbox. I have it filter the Outlook junk and junk candidates folders in 
addition to my inbox. Outlook does its filtering and then SpamBayes overrides 
it.

 

Inelegant and inefficient (Microsoft's fault, not SpamBayes') but effective.

Subject: [Spambayes] Outlook 2007 Junk mail filter - interference withSpamBayes

I have a windows vista machine running outlook 2007. Spam Bayes seems to work 
fine, but my outlook 2007 Junk Mail filter - even in the off mode - seems to be 
doing the same kind of "work" as spam bayes.  Thus, very little spam makes it 
into my spam bucket. Naturally, I prefer spambayes to do my spam filtering.

 

Can you add to your faq - or send me the answer - on how to truly turn the 
Outlook 2007 Junk Mail filter off?
