You can set up your mail application to filter new mail you receive, and to control junk mail, such as bulk messages and spam messages. You can create mail rules to act automatically on new messages you receive that meet certain conditions.

Spam must be filtered using criteria such as subject lines and message content because spam senders typically change the sender information in their mailings to avoid being blocked. You can use a Quick Rule to filter these types of messages.
Retrieving messages from junk mail
Occasionally messages that you want to read or keep are inadvertently filtered as junk mail. The Junk folder lets you view messages labeled junk and retrieve those that you want to keep. The Junk folder also provides tools for blocking and unblocking addresses.
