Yes, I use that too. But all it does, as requested, is to move any emails it thinks are junk to an allocated junk folder. So they are all in one place. I then check for any that are not really junk, mark them accordingly, and delete the rest. But, some days, there seem to be loads. I have had over 100 in one day before now. And it is often the same ones again and again. I just get a bit fed up with having to go through the same routine every day.

Of course, I never open them,

As a follow up, this morning I have just checked, 34 emails in the junk folder. One of them should not have been there, so I marked it as 'not junk' and it is now in my proper in folder. That is the reason I do not have them all automatically deleted before I even see them. I would lose some that I need to see.
