Default outlook/junk mail

I currently use Outlook Express as my e-mail software.
Unfortunately, I get a lot of junk e-mail to this address.

I know that with Hotmail one can get all e-mails not sent
by one of your "Contacts" to be filtered into a junk mail
folder, by using the "exclusive" setting.

Is there any way to do something similar with Outlook so
as to divert junk mail to a separate folder? Or does
anyone know of any other way that one can configure
outlook to help alleviate or manage junk mail more easily?

Thanks.

You can create message 'Rules' in OE6 to divert incoming e-mails to wherever
you want - including directly into the 'Deleted Items' folder!!

From the Menu Bar, select Message\Create Rule from Message. You can play
'til your heart's content there g

BTW - Using the Tools menu, under Options Maintenance tab, you can "Empty
messages from the 'Deleted Items' folder on exit.

It's a bit like lining the photocopier's 'out tray' right next to the
shredder vbg
