 - **Deliver messages to the Junk Email folder based on anti-spam policies**: When an anti-spam policy is configured with the action **Move message to Junk Email folder** for a spam filtering verdict, the message is delivered to the Junk Email folder of the mailbox. For more information about spam filtering verdicts in anti-spam policies, see [Configure anti-spam policies](anti-spam-policies-configure.md). Similarly, if zero-hour auto purge (ZAP) determines that a delivered message is spam or phishing, the message is moved to the Junk Email folder for **Move message to Junk Email folder** spam filtering verdict actions. For more information about ZAP, see [Zero-hour auto purge (ZAP) in Exchange Online](zero-hour-auto-purge.md).

-Microsoft 365 is able to deliver messages to the Junk Email folder based on the spam filtering verdict action **Move message to Junk Email folder** and the Blocked Senders list in the mailbox, and prevent messages from being delivered to the Junk Email folder based on the Safe Senders list on the mailbox.
+Microsoft 365 adds the header `X-Forefront-Antispam-Report: SFV:BLK` to incoming messages from senders in a user's Blocked Senders list, and any future messages from that sender are classified as spam. The message is delivered to the user's Junk Email folder or to quarantine based on the action configured in the applicable anti-spam policy (our [recommended action](recommended-settings-for-eop-and-office365.md#anti-spam-policy-settings) is **Move message to Junk Email folder**).

+If the sender is a user's Safe Senders list, the message is delivered to their Inbox.
 
 Admins can use Exchange Online PowerShell to configure entries in the safelist collection on mailboxes (the Safe Senders list, the Safe Recipients list, and the Blocked Senders list).
