I don't know if or where MS has a blocked senders list we don't see, but I
do know this has been discussed in here before....evidently some people
still get mail moved to their Junk folder even if they turn off the Outlook
junk stuff.

However, I also use SpamBayes instead of Outlook's junk stuff, and you can
go into SpamBayes settings and choose any folder you want as your spam
folder....so if you choose Outlook's Junk Email folder, then all your junk
ends up in the same place.  I have SpamBayes set up to move new mail that it
suspects as junk into a folder I made called "Junk Suspects"....then I also
have SpamBayes set up to move mail that is definitely spam into my Oulook
Junk Email folder.  Usually, the only mail I have to check is the stuff in
the Junk Suspects folder and either mark it as spam or not spam, then
SpamBayes remembers this and treats it appropriately in the future.  The
mail that ends up in my Outlook Junk Email folder is rarely anything I have
to check and I can safely delete it without looking too closely.

Technically, I guess SpamBayes is off topic in this group....but because
it's an add-in made specifically for Outlook and because it improves the
performance of Outlook so greatly, I consider it a necessary part of Outlook
so I will allow discussion of it in this group.

Subject: [mso] Blocked Senders query

Hi I'm using MS Outlook 2003 SP2, but I also use Spambayes to deal with my
spam.
 
As a result, I have selected the "No Filtering" option in Actions>Junk. This
goes on to say that mail from Blocked Senders will still be sent to my Junk
Email folder. As I have no entries in the blocked senders list, I expected
that there would be no mail dealt with by MS Outlook's Junk Tools, but it
appears I am wrong as a small number of mails still appear to be handled by
Outlook and sent to its choice of Junk Folder (Spambayes does not use the
same folder).
 
Does anyone know if Outlook keeps a MS controlled "Blocked Senders" list and
if so, where, and can I disable it?
 
Colin
