Ok. So you have to make a junk mail folder and move the mail there 
yourself until it takes over. What does the folder have to be named 
exactly? Do I need a junk folder for each of my email accounts or can I 
just put it under "local folders" and use the one folder for all three 
accounts?

Thanks.
