Most Mail is Going To Junk Folder... Even From Apple. Any Thoughts?

I feel like maybe I'm missing something obvious, but anyone know why much of my mail is going directly into my junk folder? I have three .mac accounts and even mail sent from one to the other goes into my junk folder. Also the weekly iTunes update just ended up there. Huh?
The other issue I have is that I can't find a way to mark anything that ends up in junk as "not junk". It only offers "mark as junk" even if I right click.

Anyone...? No one else has noticed this? Any help appreciated but I can't imagine that I'm the ONLY one that is dealing with this. I got home tonight to find 3 Emails from various airlines & travel agents (all of which I have received a million times before) that ended up in my junk folder. Most of my mail from friends still goes to my inbox, but it's looking like darn near anything that isn't a personalized Email ends up in my junk. Help...?!

Good mail going to Junk folder -- even Apple mail

I know there are other threads on this, but no one seems to have a resolve for it.
Mac OS X 10.6.8
Just got my computer repaired at Apple, new harddrive, new video card. So it's starting anew.
However, even my MacBookAir is putting my GOOD MAIL in my JUNK FOLDER. So it's universal on all my devices.
Why is my mail going to my junk folder. It's annoying to have to check every single piece of mail with "this is not junk" and then drag it to the IN box. And then even that doesn't work. I'll still receive the email from the same sender back into my Junk Folder.
I see a LOT, hundreds, of VIEWS for this issue, but no one is yet to resolve it.
Hope someone can solve it. Thanks

Well, let's put it this way, it was never a problem before. A new harddrive was installed on my computer so I'm starting from scratch. I have no "rules" set yet. My mail supplier is MAC --.mac, .icloud -- mail. So my provider is MAC or APPLE I guess. It's mac mail.
Everything is set to "default" right now. I followed someone else's instructions to RESET the Junk Mail. Did that.
But I don't know any other proceedures to take to stop ALL MY MAIL from going into the JUNK EMAIL BOX.
Never did that before, so there must be some setting, or not, that is causing it to do that.
I have "enable junk mail filtering" checked. The following types of messages are EXEMPT, my address book, previous recipients, messages using my full name, all checked.
Certainly "previous recipients" should not be sent to the junk folder if that option is checked to be exempt.
What's left?

Mail Going to Junk Folder that is Not Junk

I have mail that is going to my junk folder that is not junk. When I look at the "thumb" symbol for the mail, the thumb is down, meaning that it doesn't think it is junk either. Even when I turn my "Enable Junk Mail Filtering" off in Preferences, the mail still goes to junk. No idea how to fix this. It seems like a glitch!

Thank you Nubz N. and BobHarris for your feedback on the issue. I had actually already tried resetting my junk settings in Apple Mail and had no success, and trust me BobHarris, I was not using the Junk key as the delete key.
It turned out that I had to go directly to the email source's website, which in this case was Gmail, and change my junk settings there. Apple Mail was perceiving the incoming mail as "Not Junk", but because Gmail was viewing it as junk, it was still going to my Apple Mail junk folder. I'm not sure why Gmail was viewing it as junk, as I had never clicked junk before. Anyway, after changing the junk settings there at Gmail, the filter has now been working properly again.

All mail going in Junk folder

Since upgrading to Mavericks all my mail is going straight into my Junk folder apart from a trial email I sent to myself. It seems that it is not recognising genuine mail sent from anyone other than people in my contacts.
Has anyone any idea how I can change this from happening?

Have you made any changes to the junk filter in Preferences > Junk Mail > Advanced? Try this:
1. Go to Preferences > Junk Mail, disable junk mail filtering, then enable it again. This resets the rule that governs what the junk filter does.
2. Choose either Training or Automatic mode (it doesn’t matter) and leave the other options checked. Click Advanced to see how the junk filter rule is defined now if you want, but don’t touch anything there.
3. Reset the junk filter database (Preferences > Junk Mail > Reset).

Add the from address to safe senders list or disable the client-side junk folder.

E-mail alarm goes into Junk Mail in Mail WHY??

Hi all
I have some events in iCal and set some to send me e-mail to my computer or if I'm away
I can still check (not Hotmail) but they always go into Junk folder n Mail why is this? My card is on Address Book and even though I click Not Junk it still goes into Junk folder. Is there something
that I'm doing wrong? HELP please
Thanks

I don't know why this happens but this info may be relevant. I have recently got a new computer and set up my name in the address book without an accent on the letter 'e'. However, I noticed that iCal still sends messages using my name with an accent and there does not appear to be a way to change it. Thus the mail does not appear to come from 'me' in my address book.
Workaround: Just use the Mail rules and have any mail marked as 'Alarm' moved into your inbox.

EMOD Emails going into Junk Folder

I created an email campaign in EMOD, targetting 330 customers. Just to be on the safe side, I also added myself as a recipient on the list. The emails went out successfully as scheduled, but I noticed that instead of the inbox my email has gone directly into the Outlook Junk folder.
The email was designed so that it is sent FROM a person's email address, but any REPLY-TO go into a generic email account for an internal team to monitor. Also, the email does not have the (bhd-bounce etc...) as this was removed by Customer Care.
Can someone please explain how I can avoid the emails going into Junk Folder? I am concerned that our customers will not see the email, or that the Response Status for this campaign will not reflect true results.
Please advise.

Hi CRMwise,
I could not understand what this means:
If you need to white list for your company the information below should help:
mail-11.crmodmail.com (141.146.155.148)
Did you follow up with Oracle to find out how to whitelist your emails?
Oracle claims that they take extra care to ensure that mails sent from their server are whitelisted. However, I guess that would not stop the individual email address mentioned in the From field from getting blacklisted.
Do share your experience how you mange to resolve this issue. Here is an interesting link I came across:

Why does Mail keep creating a Junk folder that I don't want

I don't want Mail to filter for Junk because it always gets it wrong. I have another, better filter. I have unchecked the box. Nevertheless, Mail persists in creating a Junk folder and occasionally putting messages into it. Many of these messages are perfectly good and go unnoticed for a few days before I notice them in the new Junk folder. I keep deleting the folder, but eventually it comes back again.
Why is it doing this, and how can I stop it??

Thanks for your interest, but unchecking 'Enable junk mail filtering' hides the junk folder, and it will not be regenerated unless Apple Mail unilaterally decides it wants to put something in it. This problem only started for me last year, and for years before that, I did not have a Junk folder. My own spam filter (Spamsieve) works perfectly well.
As I have unchecked 'Enable junk mail filtering', the two options you mention do not exist: they are greyed out.

"Good" mail going into Junk folder

For the last 2-3 weeks I have started seeing my "good" mail, get delivered to my junk folder. This is mail that I've been receiving for months or even years. None of this mail is personal: some of it is from politicians, some are recipes, one was my place of employment, Macworld. Occasionally I'll send myself an email from my .mac account to my .mac account and it ends up in the junk folder. Almost everything that's going to my junk folder are emails that I have signed up for at one time or another. I'm getting "true junk" delivered there, too.
Any ideas why this is happening and what I can do to reverse the trend? Yes, I'm hitting "Not Junk."
Thanks.
Chip

Do you have two different accounts forwarded to one? That's not good.
On your wife's account, your e-mail messages are junk because they aren't hers. The best thing to do is have separate e-mail accounts. You could also create a rule to send your email into a different folder before the junk filter sees it.
In the future, please start your own discussion topic.

Mail going into junk folder that's not junk

I have tons of emails suddenly going into my junk folder, but they are not even being marked as junk email. These are emails that used to always come in fine. It's happening to all my accounts, so I don't think it's to do with the provider, especially since one is my Mac account. Any idea what's going on?

Mail>Preferences>Junk Mail
Uncheck the 2 boxes marked below.

All mail going into junk folder, 'Rules' not working

All my new email is going into the Junk mail folder, even some old emails from one folder. Plus, my Rules aren't working when I apply them.

Found out the problem lies with SpamSieve - once I unchecked it in Rules, everything's back to normal. I guess there's not a Leopard-compatible version yet, but what a great service it is.

Can't you turn it off completely?
I ave not much experience with spam/junk handling in Mail. I am not sure whether marking a mail as spam/junk it will be remembered always. There are third party spamfilters that you can install. I do not use them.

Mail going to junk folder is not marked as junk

I have an automated email that I get occasionally. Without exception it ends up in the junk folder. However, even sitting in the junk folder, the message itself is not marked as junk.
I've turned off all rules, and they still go to the junk folder. Any ideas?
may be relevant: the email address is a google business apps email address.

There are quite a few threads discussing this.
Google is likely moving the items into it's spam folder which shows up as "Junk" in Mail.
Since Mail did not put them there, it doesn't mark them as Junk as it has no idea why they were put there.
As Gmail is IMAP-ish, your local copy matches what is on the server. Since it is in Spam on the server, it shows up in Junk in Mail.
