I need step by step help PJ for things like this. In any case, Bayes Filter is working beautifully PJ and I think my email downloads are faster now too. As a brief explanation from what I have been able to glean over the last while: Average Maximal Minimal - do nothing unless you are using more than one spam filter, then it would use the average of the two scores, the Maximum of the two scores or the Minimum. Delete the message if score is greater than - should only be used if set quite high, so you can have a chance to review messages before they are deleted. Move a message to junk if score is greater than - moves the message to your junk folder, either in each account or a common folder. Mark stored junk mail as read - is what you must have originally had selected to mark your mail as read. Move messages marked as junk to the Junk folder - is for manually marked mail. Use the Common Junk folder - ie instead of one Junk folder per account. If you use more than one computer to download email and you get the same Junk mail on both computers, because you leave messages on server, there is a trick to only having to deal with the Junk on one computer.

Don't know if I understand your question but...I can change this option for each of my accounts. It is found going through the account/properties menu. So I assumed it is for a specific account. How do I create a filter that sends messages to a common folder Unread? When I create filter the messages are moved to a folder and they are shown as unread in that folder.
