I'm using Outlook 2007 with several POP3 accounts. One of those accounts is
what you might call a "master" account for my domain. The only email it gets
is spam, since I don't use it to send email or give it out to anyone.
Outlook is pretty much catching everything coming from that domain and
putting it into my Junk email folder.

I also am getting emails on another domain addressed to a few particular
non-existent addresses. I've created rules for those to delete them. But
Outlook is moving most of those into Junk. And Outlook is moving (spam)
emails from my regular email into Junk as it's supposed to.

I can manually run the rules on the Junk email folder (e.g. I just had about
2000 emails in my junk folder; after running the rules, I was left with
about 450 to go through addressed to my normal email account). But it's
really a hassle to mark about 50 rules to run manually.

Here's what I'd like:

a) a way to run rules before the junk mail filter gets them
or
b) a macro to run the rules against the junk mail folder.

You can't run rules before junk rules.

Why not set up autoarchive to delete the mail in the junk folder daily and
let it delete the junk for you?

I still need to manually go through the junk folder and make sure there's
nothing in there that's not junk. I may only find 10 out of a 1000 that are
not junk, but I still don't want to get rid of them.

I've set up auto-formatting for the Junk folder. mails that meet specific
criteria are highlighted blue. That works very good, and I can set at a
glance what's most likely no spam.
