Customizing junk email filter settings
By default, the junk e-mail filter retains phishing e-mail messages in the ZoneAlarm phishing Mail folder until you manually delete them. You can specify how long e-mail messages are stored in the ZoneAlarm Junk Mail and ZoneAlarm Challenged Mail folders, as well as automate fraud e-mail reporting, and configure wireless device forwarding. In addition, if you could like to scan more than one Outlook Inbox, you can specify those settings here.
To specify storage duration for junk e‑mail:
- Start your Outlook or Outlook Express e‑mail program.
- In the junk e‑mail filter toolbar, click ZoneAlarm Options|Configure Preferences |Settings.
- In the Junk Folder Settings area, click Configure.
- Type the number of days to retain suspected junk e‑mail in the ZoneAlarm Junk Mail and ZoneAlarm Challenged Mail folders.
The junk e‑mail filter moves e‑mail that has been in the folder for the specified number of days without being validated into Outlook’s Deleted Items folder.
- Click Close.

- In the junk e‑mail filter toolbar, click ZoneAlarm Options | Configure Preferences | Settings.

You can also choose to forward only e‑mail headers, and to specify the number of validate messages forwarded to your wireless device in a 24‑hour period.
- If you need to specify a non-default e‑mail server, click E‑mail Server, type the name of your outbound e-mail server, then click OK.
Click Close to save your changes.
