Can junk email filters be added to Outlook XP?

The question says it all. Thanks in advance for any help.

The Outlook 2003 Junk Email Updates for the junk filter are version
specific. Or are you inquiring about adding third party filters? Or do you
mean updating the filters.txt file? Or...

Sorry - your question says very little.

There are many good, some free, anti-spam programs that work with Outlook 2002. See http://www.slipstick.com/rules/junkmail.htm#tools

Thanks Mary, but I use WinXP and was desperately attempting to try to edit my
junk senders list, by installing the Outlook 2003 filter utility. It turns
out that I was not able to install that into XP, but I was able to accomplish
what I needed using the 'organize' feature in Outlool XP. Thanks for your
post. Bob

Thank you, Sue, but I was attempting to load the Outlook 2003 filter utility
into Outlook XP. Apparently, this cannot be done. After looking deeper, I was
able to accomplish the edit of my junk senders list by deleting all 'rules'
and starting over with a clean, new junk mail rule. Thanks for you rpost.
