Question : Junk email folder on PST and OWA

Exhange Server 2003.  SP2
Outlook 2007.
OWA with IE7

Does anybody know why my Junk Email folder in OWA does not have any emails in it, but the Junk Email filter in my PST does?

Both the OWA account and the PST account point to the same Mailbox on the exchange server.

For example, I can see JunkEmail#1 in the Junk Email folder in my PST, but I see the same exact email (JunkMail#1) in Inbox in OWA.

Thanks

Answer : Junk email folder on PST and OWA

so it sounds like your outlook, which downloads to pst, is classifying it as junk and putting it into the pst junk folder.  that's ok.

it also leaves a copy on the server, which is great.

if you're not accessing your mailbox with outlook connected via EXCHANGE, then your junk will stay in your inbox because the spam filtering happens with outlook-exchange, and not at the server level itself.

since your outlook-pst is using pop3/smtp, there's no way it can replicate folders.  there's no function for pop3/smtp to tell the server to move something from the inbox to another folder (other than deleted of course)
