When you do that, Norton cannot read the mail to find the spam. Edit - Doesn't look like there's any way to make Norton work with Yahoo & SSL. I'd suggest SpamBayes - an antispam plugin for Outlook. It's very powerful, and learns to identify spam based on how you flag messages. In the beginning it'll miss stuff, but as long as you use the "Flag as spam" button it will learn quickly.
