a Flo + a Blog = a Flog

If you use Postini for your spam protection and Outlook as your email client, you may want to streamline your Postini use doing the following:

1. In Outlook, Select View>Folder list
2. Right-click on “Outlook Today” and select “New Folder”.
3. Call the folder whatever you chose to name it or Spam for lack of imagination. When prompted add an Outlook shortcut to the shortcut list. The shortcut will be placed on “My Shortcuts” but can be moved to the other Shortcut lists as necessary.
4. Right click the “Spam” folder, select “Properties”.
5. Select the “Home Page” tab in the Properties window.
6. In the address window type the following URL and select the checkbox labeled “Show home page by default for this folder”:
7. http://login.postini.com
8. Click “Apply” and “OK”.
9. Click on the Spam folder, login to your Message Center and if desired, select “Remember my Address and Password”
10. Close Outlook

The next time Outlook is opened and the Spam folder is selected, the Message Center should appear within Outlook.
