(Interaction between Spam checking and Sieve filtering) |

When connecting to our email service over IMAP we will create a special folder named <code>spam</code> (lowercase). If you delete the spam folder it will be re-created next time you log in.
Some email clients recognise this folder as being 'special' and may call it something else,
The service will then move messages that have been classified as spam into this folder (unless you are doing your own Sieve filtering). This helps
keep your inbox free of spam and you should keep an eye on this folder in case there are messages
that are not spam.
Some email clients (e.g. K-9 Mail for Android) refuse to notify the user of new mail in the Spam folder. This behaviour can be corrected by declaring (e.g. in the account's folder settings) that there is no special Spam folder.
