Over the last 6 weeks or so, I've had/seen several questions about the junk mail folder icon and didn't understand why they insisted the icon was wrong… I do now.
My junk email folder is blocked, how do I unblock it? Nothing goes into the folder automatically. There is a small red circle with a diagonal line thru it on the folder symbol. Outlook 2007.
This is the correct icon for the folder and doesn’t mean the junk mail filter is blocked or broken.
