I have a user who upgraded to office 2007 standard and migrated over his account settings Since we did that his junk email filter is not working at all. I have tried:<br />
1. using outlook spy to delete and recreate the junk email rules<br />
2. removed the junk email auto update and reinstalled. (twice)<br />
3. did a repair on Outlook install<br />
4. checked for any 2nd party spam filters that might be enabled, there were none.<br />
Do I need to blow away the profile and uninstall Outlook altogether?<br />
Everything looks fine, but it just doesn't seem to work, even when he manually moves the sender/domain to the junk email folder. Any help would be appreciated. I'm ready to install a 2nd party spam filter at this point.

Questions regarding junk email filter not working in outlook 2007

Various techniques are used to prevent email spam (unsolicited bulk email). No technique is a complete solution to the spam problem, and each has trade-offs between incorrectly rejecting legitimate email (false positives) vs. not rejecting all spam (false negatives) - and the associated costs in time and effort. Anti-spam techniques can be broken into four broad categories: those that require actions by individuals, those that can be automated by email administrators, those that can be automated by email senders and those employed by researchers and law enforcement officials.

An email client, email reader or more formally mail user agent (MUA) is a computer program used to access and manage a user's email. A web application that provides message management, composition, and reception functions is sometimes also considered an email client, but more commonly referred to as webmail.

Email Software

An email client, email reader or more formally mail user agent (MUA) is a computer program in the category of groupware environments used to access and manage a user's email. A web application that provides message management, composition, and reception functions may internally act as an email client; as a whole, it is commonly referred to as webmail. Likewise, email client may be referred to a piece of computer hardware or software whose primary or most visible role is to work as an email client. Email clients can also have other systems, like calendars, notes and contact managers.
