  Spam management

  

  1. 1. Mark a message as Junk

     If you receive spam in your inbox, you can mark it as junk by selecting it and then clicking Junk in the menu bar. This marks the sender as unsafe and moves the message to the Deleted folder.

  2. 2. Mark a message as phishing Scam

     If you receive a suspicious message that appears to be falsely mimicking a real company or that is requesting personal information, you can mark it as a phishing scam by selecting it and clicking Mark as in the menu bar, and then phishing scam.
