Spam handling is disabled. All email will be delivered to your inbox without being marked in any way as spam.
For small amounts of spam, it is recommended that both settings below are set the same, dependent on your personal preferences either to "mark & deliver to inbox" or "deliver to Spam folder".
As you receive more spam, it is recommended that your spam handling is split into:
"almost certainly spam" - which you probably need never look at "likely spam" - which is likely to contain some false positives so you should check occasionally
This will challenge all email that looks like it might be spam. Warning: This may catch the first email you receive from someone. In this case, the message will be pending in the Spam folder until the sender replies to the friends bounce. (or the messsage is manually marked as not spam)
Email is only accepted from people on your safe sender list for this account.
A custom spam configuration is being used which is configurable via Advanced Settings. You may want to try one of the recommended "One step spam control" configurations above.

This is not implemented as a "feature" yet, but can be achieved by creating a filter rule to move messages with a high spam rating to a particular folder. The above selection box will revert to 'Deliver to INBOX' once you press save.
This is cannot be set from here yet but can be enabled on the 'Unknown Sender Controls' page. The above selection box will revert to 'Deliver to INBOX' once you press save.
