Don't filter junk e-mail

Select this option button if you want to turn off junk e-mail filtering. If you select this, you won't be able to use any of the other options on this tab.

Manage Safe Senders List

Add senders you trust to this list. E-mail from these senders will never be treated as junk e-mail.

|
Also trust e-mail from my Contacts
|
If you select this check box, e-mail from any address in your Contacts will be treated as safe.

Manage Blocked Senders List
|
Blocked senders are domains and people you don't want to receive e-mail messages from. Messages received from any e-mail address or domain on your Blocked Senders List are sent directly to your Junk E-Mail folder.
|
|
Manage Safe Recipients List
|
Safe recipients include groups that you're a member of and from which you want to receive e-mail messages. You can also add individual e-mail addresses to your Safe Recipients List. A recipient is the intended destination of a message. A recipient can be a specific person or a group.
|
|
Treat all e-mail as junk unless it comes from someone in my Safe Senders or Safe Recipients lists, or from senders in my organization
|
In addition to the Safe Senders, Safe Recipients, and Blocked Senders lists, you can configure Outlook Live to treat all e-mail as junk unless it comes from someone included in your Safe Senders or Safe Recipients lists or from senders in your shared address list.
