How to Mark an Email Message as Not Junk or Spam in Outlook?
When using Outlook’s Junk E-mail filter, you may occasionally find legitimate emails mistakenly flagged as junk and sent to the Junk E-mail folder. For individual cases, you can easily mark the email as “Not Junk” and restore it to its original folder. However, handling multiple emails manually can be tedious and time-consuming.
In this article, we’ll introduce two methods to solve this issue. First, we’ll show you how to mark an individual email as “Not Junk” using Outlook’s built-in tools. Then, we’ll explore how to batch manage and never block multiple emails at once using Kutools for Outlook—a time-saving solution for professionals.

Mark an Individual Email Message as Not Junk or Spam in Outlook
If you only need to fix one mistakenly flagged email, Outlook’s built-in tools are a quick solution. Here’s how you can do it:
Step 1: Open the Junk E-mail Folder and select the Email
Navigate to the "Junk E-mail" folder containing the email you want to restore. Click on the email you want to mark as a normal message.
Step 2: Mark as Not Junk
Right-click the selected email, and click "Junk" > "Not Junk" from the context menu.
Step 3 (optional): Configure Trust Options
In the "Mark as Not Junk" dialog box, you can:
- Check the "Always trust emails from this address" option: Prevent future emails from this sender from being treated as junk.
- Check the "Always trust emails sent to the following addresses" option: Ensure emails sent to this email account in Outlook are trusted.
- Click "OK" to confirm your settings.
The email will now be marked as “Not Junk” and automatically moved back to its original folder. This method is ideal for individual emails but can become cumbersome for larger volumes.
