Junk Email Auto Delete Question

J

I right click on an email and put on the junk email sender's list. It
just sits there. Is it supposed to automatically delete? Also, if
that address comes in in the future, is is supposed to automatically
delete? I have several email addresses that I have put in the list,
but they show up in my InBox anyway. I don't want them simply colored
with Organize. I want them to be deleted! Thank you. Office XP Pro.

Do you have the junk mail rule configured to delete or to colorize the
message? You need to configure it to delete...

At the point you add the sender to the Junk Sender list, no. Adding an
address to the Junk Sender list does not cause the junk mail rule to
execute.

that address comes in in the future, is is supposed to automatically
delete?

If you have enabled deletion in the junk mail rule, it's supposed to, unless
something else prevents that from happening. Otherwise, it will just be
colored, since that's the default behavior.
