- Right-click the account name in the folder list panel.
- Select IMAP Folders.
- Click the Query button.
- Select the newly added folder(s), and click the Subscribe button.

- Restart Outlook to update the folder list.
- Confirm that you see a Spam folder.
If you do not want an IMAP Spam folder, request your mail server administrator or VMS/TactiCom to change your spam filtering. Spam settings available are to disable spam filtering on the server, forward spam to another e-mail address, or appended [Spam] to the subject of suspected spam messages. You can create a local outlook filter to filter messages with [Spam] in the subject line.
