<p dir="auto">Hello Randall,</p>
<p dir="auto">I use an external app called SpamSieve (by Michael Tsai) to filter junk mail from my inboxes (in 10 IMAP accounts, including a Gmail account). It actually runs on a separate server (a MacMini 2020) running a separate app (Apple’s Mail.app).</p>
<p dir="auto">MM supports SpamSieve although I do not know how well that works as my setup works so well as is, I never bothered to try MM on that machine.</p>
<p dir="auto">The filtering set up is so seamless, I do virtually nothing to achieve a clean inbox other than that (the initial set up).</p>
<p dir="auto">I have a very broad definition about junk and filter out everything that I did not specifically authorize or have a contact entry for. Rarely do I get a false positive spam that land in the junk mail and when I do, I can retrain it to the inbox easily from wherever I am, even on my iPhone.</p>
<p dir="auto">Vice versa, if it’s a false negative junk piece that lands at my inbox, it can be similarly moved by tossing it to the “Train as Spam” mailbox which adds it to the blocklist.</p>
<p dir="auto">SpamSieve tallies the activity of its filtering over time. I have the Mail.app discard the junk and deleted mail from their respective mailboxes regularly depending on the buildup in them.</p>

<p dir="auto">I use (what I assume is) the default "Unreads" smart mailbox to collect all my unread messages, sorted into specific mailboxes for easier consumption.</p>
<p dir="auto">This includes the Junk messages, making it easy for me to quickly scan for false positives. This Junk submailbox within "Mailboxes > Unread" works for all of my various accounts (currently nine active accounts), EXCEPT Gmail. (These Gmail junk messages DO, however, show in the appropriate "Junk > Google" subsection in the "Mailboxes" section of the left-hand list.)</p>
<p dir="auto">I guess I don't understand the rules syntax well enough to figure out how to get those messages to appear alongside all the others in the "Mailboxes > Unread > Junk" submailbox in the smart mailboxes list.</p>
<p dir="auto">Can anyone give me a push in the right direction? Hopefully, I've explained this sufficiently; I'll be happy to expound/elaborate to make things clearer if necessary.</p>
