...Yes there is a junk mail popup in Windows Live Mail and to get it back...In your case it is set to 1.

I'm still on WLM 2009 and it also has the pop-up dialog and registry settings. Perhaps the confusion is that most people would call it a "dialog" rather than a "pop-up" since most dialogs do popup on the screen in order to be seen. What I wish I could find is a way to set the Junk mail filter to also "mark as read" as you can do with Inbox mail filtering rules that auto-delete stuff.

Hi Ron,

Do you get pop-ups for junk mail in WLM 2009?
I have WLM 2012 and I don't remember ever seeing a pop-up for Junk mail (or any mail).

I checked, and my registry setting is 0 for Don't Show Junk Dialog
So, I should get a pop-up when I get Junk mail (I think)

Maybe the registry setting is a leftover from WLM 2009 that doesn't work with WLM 2012?

Right now I'm trying to figure out how to send myself Junk mail to see how this works

OK, i figured out how to send myself Junk mail, and I can get this message with WLM 2012.


Is this the pop-up you are wanting?
If so, my guess is you clicked the "Please do not show me this dialog again" checkbox.
That would probably change the Registry setting...

I was thinking "Pop-Up" meant the way Outlook displays a pop-up above the Tray Icons when new mail arrives.

I'm not sure what version of WLM you have but here is my registry

What are the other Windows Live entries above in your registry?

Yes, that's what I said, with the caveat that it should be called something else, like "dialog box".

...Their is no 'Don't Show Junk Dialog' in Regedit...

Perhaps you can get it back by adding it.
