The Microsoft Outlook 2013 junk email or spam feature moves incoming messages which appear to be junk mail into a special junk folder. If you’re already using an email service that already filters Junk Email / SPAM, some prefer to disable the Outlook Junk Email feature. Here’s how to do it.

How-To Step-by-Step
Open Outlook, Click the Home Tab and Click Junk.
From the Drop-Down, Click Junk E-mail Options.
Click the bullet No Automatic Filtering.
Click OK to save the settings change and that’s it!
Doesn’t work. With option selected to turn off the filter some emails still go to junk folder.
Doesn’t work for me either. Some email still goes to junk.
same, poor programming.
Does not work even when the Blocked email list is empty. will try creating a rule to move any emails arriving in the Junk folder to Inbox. See if that works. Even recall send email does not work. Microsoft is not soo Groovy after all!
As per AWT3, (and the description tied to the No Automatic Filtering button) mail from the blocked senders list will still be moved to Junk, so you must clear that list as well.
However, I also still get mail moved to Junk, but if you open the emails, the Info prompt which appears under the retention policy, says “marked as spam using junk filter other than the Outlook Junk E-mail filter” – I suspect this is the cause of all our problems. Here, we also have a McAfee’s filtering solution which quarantines junk e-mail for which we get specific e-mails to delete or release from quarantine, and I am wondering whether Outlook is misreading some data that McAfee is putting into these e-mail headers. I still have to check this out, but in the meantime this might help a few others in investigating their problems.
