How do I find what rules Outlook uses to determine whether emails are spam?

Question

I'd like to obtain the set of rules that Microsoft Outlook 2003 uses to determine whether an email is spam or not. Any idea where I can find this information?

I ask because some of the emails I've sent are going into my friends' spam folders.

Answer 1

Its based on your approved/not-approved lists, a list made up from web experience and a secret formula that looks for certain characteristics in each msg--such as origin, routing, etc.

Answer 2

Outlook doesn't decide what is spam, the ISP does. You are probably forwarding mail that has already been classed as spam. It is very unlikely that any personal mail would be directed in this way.

Answer 3

If you go to the Outlook site you can get all the rules and regulations and help that you need.
