Important
When your filters are in place, it is important to monitor your junk mail box every seven days to ensure that no legitimate mails have been filtered there by mistake. If they have been, open the Junk mail folder, check the box next to the legitimate e-mail and then simply click on the 'This is not junk' link.
About the Exclusive Filter Setting
As the name suggests, the exclusive filter setting offers a high level of junk mail protection. Only e-mail from either your Contacts or a specially created Safe List will be delivered to your Hotmail inbox. To ensure that you always receive the e-mail you want, either add users to your Contacts or create a Safe List when using this setting.
