set-OrganizationConfig -SCLJunkThreshold 5

[Bob]

I'm confused about "
set-OrganizationConfig -SCLJunkThreshold 5" in Exchange 2007.

It indicates to me that at this threshold (or above), the mail will go to
the users Junk Mail Folder. But what about the Outlook configuration
control "Junk E-mail Options" where the user can select no automatic
filtering, low or high?

Are these ignored when the cmdlett is used?

Hi Bob,

By default, the Junk E-mail Filter in Microsoft Office Outlook 2007 is
turned on, and the protection level is set to Low, which is the setting
that is designed to catch the most obvious spam. Also by default, any
message that is caught by the Junk E-mail Filter is moved to the Junk
E-mail folder. You can change any of these Junk E-mail Filter options to
get the kind and amount of protection that you need.

Change the level of junk e-mail protection

1. On the Tools menu, click Options.
2. On the Preferences tab, under E-mail, click Junk E-mail.
3. Select the level of protection that you want:

No Automatic Filtering Although this turns off the automatic Junk E-mail
Filter, Outlook continues to evaluate messages by using the domain names
and e-mail addresses in your Blocked Senders List, and also continues to
move messages from blocked senders to the Junk E-mail folder.

Low If you don't receive many junk e-mail messages and want to see all
but the messages that are most obviously junk, select this option.

High If you receive a large number of junk e-mail messages, but do not
wish to restrict the messages you see to those from senders on your safe
lists, select this option. However, you should periodically review messages
moved to the Junk E-mail folder, because some legitimate messages may be
moved there as well.

Safe Lists Only If you receive a large number of e-mail messages, you can
alternatively select this option, which will cause any e-mail message that
is sent neither from someone on your Safe Senders List nor to a mailing
list on your Safe Recipients List to be treated as junk.

Hope this helps.

If you need further assistance, please don't hesitate to let me know.

Best Regards,

Robert,

Thanks for this information. Doesn't Exchange 2007 also have capability to
move a message to a user/mailbox's "Junk e-mail" folder, outside of Outlook's
capability? (For support for OWA or OA users, for instance).

If so, can you tell me where to get more information about this function,
and how to manage/monitor/configure it within Exchange 2007?

Thanks,
Eggy
