Disable spam filtering in Outlook

This turns off automatic spam filtering in Outlook. You can still manually tell SpamSieve to filter messages using the Filter Messages command in the menu bar icon. If you are using the InboxSpamSieve setup, you would also need to uncheck the SpamSieve rules in Outlook’s settings to prevent messages from collecting in the InboxSpamSieve folder.

  • Simpler setup (but slow if lots of messages kept in Inbox)
  • Messages arrive directly in Inbox
  • SpamSieve periodically moves spam messages from Inbox to Junk Email
  • Train SpamSieve from the menu bar icon or SpamSieve’s Dock menu
