Outlook 2003 Junk Mail Filter
Since installing Outlook 2003 (beta2 with technical refresh) I've been using the built-in Junk Mail filter provided by Microsoft. It works wonderfully. It actually does a better job than SpamNet. I've canceled my SpamNet subscription and just now configured the Outlook Junk Mail filter to automatically just permanently delete spam - I trust it that much.
Hint: If you're using Exchange server, make sure you configure your account in cached mode - i.e. cache your email on your local machine, otherwise the filter doesn't work. And don't set it to permanently delete your junk mail until you have confidence that it's not deleting important stuff. I did have to build a small list of trusted senders before I gained confidence that everything going forward is junk.

Hi Steve. I have been using Outlook 2003 and the spam filter was working really well. Then, for some unkonw reason, it stopped working altogether. Any thoughts on how to fix it. Have you heard fo any one else having this problem. Any help appreciated.
