Information

By default, e-mail addresses in users' Contacts list are treated as safe senders for purposes of filtering junk e-mail. If this configuration is changed, e-mail from users' Contacts might be misclassified as junk and cause important information to be lost.

Solution

The policy value for User Configuration -> Administrative Templates -> Microsoft Office Outlook 2007 -> Tools \ Options -> Preferences -> Junk E-mail 'Trust E-mail from Contacts' will be set to 'Enabled'.
