McAfee Anti Spam Query

I am using McAfee.
I am being plauged with SPAM mail and am trying to tweak my settings on McAfee to try to cut some of the SPAM out.
I have created a list of FRIENDS and am considering setting my Level to HIGH which says that only those messges from those on my FRIENDS list will get through. Fine but there may be odd ones which I might need to check.
I keep seeing reference to the McAfee ANTI SPAM FOLDER which seems to be where it puts all filtered mail.
Could anyone tell me where the antio spam folder is? It is not on my McAfee toolbar and i have hunted through the HELP list in vain. Is therea way of checking on mail which has been marked as SPAM and not put into my OUTLOOK mailbox?

Thanks Donnie,
I had actually found that message a little earlier but have been unable to view the screenshots. There is nothing in my Oulook folders that i can see.
I have tried logging on and McAfee does not recognise my e-mail adress to set up a password/username.
I am struggling!Thank you for this site :jNow OH and I are both retired, MSE is a Godsend0 -

Donnie,
Seeing the screenprint made me look into why mine appeared different.
After a bit of fiddling I found how to get a simialr view and lo and behold there was the Anti Spam Folder.
Once again the Forum has come up trumps and solved my problems.
