OK. I'm sorry for casting aspersions.
I agree with the option to mark messages as spam - but if it's the
default, then you can guarantee that as soon as someone receives around
10 spam messages a day, they will implement a filter to move/delete
them. At which point, the only advantage of not having the junk folder
as the default is that someone's YouTube tutorial video has got a few
million more views, but you've also got lots of users who're slightly
annoyed at having to watch the video, or an IT team who are very annoyed
at having to implement filters on hundreds of users' PCs.
Unfortunately, there is no good answer that will apply to all users,
giving a user various choices is the best we can do.
