If you don't want to use additional software, you can always create rules. When you get spam, right-click the email and select create rule.

  Your best bet is to select Advanced options as this has more control. You can send emails to your junk mail by setting certain rules like if subject contains - viagara - or if email contains cialis or mortgage, etc.

   Mess around a bit, it's worth the time spent. And once you figure it out it is very simple and fast the next time around.
