No junk folder. Can I do anything?

I have three email accounts I download from. I don't have a Junk folder in the main one. Is that a concern? Can I do anything about it? When someone tells me to "check your junk folder," I can't.

The default action for messages that Thunderbird considers Junk is to place a Junk icon beside it and leave it in the Inbox. You have to setup Junk controls if you want something else to happen.

Your provider might also have spam filters and move messages into a Spam folder. You need to log into your account at your providers web mail page and check that. Thunderbird does not use the word spam or use a spam folder.

He does. I use McAfee and have a "McAfee Anti-Spam" folder. Are they the same thing?

He does what?

I do not use McAfee. Too problematic.
