Enabling/disabling Microsoft’s automatic “Clutter” folder

Clutter is now turned off by default: carleton.ca/its/clutter, but can be enabled/disabled by each email user:

  • Log into OWA, the web interface to Exchange: exchange.carleton.ca
  • Click on the Gear icon in the upper right-hand corner; select Options or search for “Clutter”, then click on Clutter in the left-hand navigation list (see image)
  • Check/uncheck “Separate items identified as clutter”

Q. Can I remove the Clutter folder?
