Where are the Outlook JunkMail Logs located?

Question

I´m looking for the reasons why Outlook moves emails to the junk folder. Are there any logs that can be viewed?

Hi @MarcfromSpessartForest ，

According of my research, Outlook does not specifically provide a separate “Junk Mail Log”. Microsoft provides several resources that explain how Outlook identifies spam:

1. Filter Junk Email and Spam in Outlook: This document explains how Outlook’s Junk Email Filter works to automatically move identified junk email to the Junk Email folder.
2. Phishing and Suspicious Behavior: This document explains how Outlook uses Spoof Intelligence from Microsoft 365 Advanced Threat Protection and Exchange Online Protection to prevent phishing messages from reaching your inbox.
3. Change the Level of Protection in the Junk Email Filter: This document explains how you can change the level of junk email protection or automatically delete junk email.
