How to Manage Junk, Spam, and Phishing Emails

Dealing with important emails ending up in the junk folder within Outlook can be incredibly frustrating. It’s disheartening to miss out on crucial communications due to this common issue. However, there’s a simple solution to ensure your emails reach the intended recipient’s inbox. By adding the sender’s email address to your contacts or marking their messages as “Not Junk,” Outlook learns to recognize these communications as legitimate. This straightforward step can save you from the annoyance of sifting through the junk folder and guarantee that your essential messages are seen promptly.
