Spam filtering is not enabled by default. Before you enable the spam filter, consider the information about privacy below.

Enabling the spam filter

In Rouncube (cloud.yourdomain.com/roundcubemail), go to "Settings" -> "Filters". Create a new filter called "Spam Block". Note that you do not need to create a new "Filter Set", but you should have at least one "Filter Set" enabled.

Fill out the form as illustrated in the image below. Under "Rules", "X-Spam-Flag" contains "YES". Under "Actions" select "Move message to", "Junk". Then click "Save".

Please keep your Inbox tidy – move all spam to the Junk folder – so that the spam filter is learning appropriately what is spam and what is not.
