Why doesn't my iPhone filter junk mail?

On my laptop(OsVentura), my Apple Mail app filters junk very effectively.


Yet, on my iPhone (v16.6) it doesn't filter nearly anything. Why? I've searched high & low for a setting on the iPhone but see nothing. On MacOS, there is a very clear Junk mail setting in the Mail app settings. On iPhone nothing.

All of these configurations are managed within the email client's server, either through a web browser or their dedicated apps—not within the iOS Mail app on an iPhone. Once you've set up these configurations on the email client's server, they will be synchronized and applied to iOS devices as well.


Which email account are you referring to? Google, iCloud, AOL, Exchange, Outlook, Yahoo or any Other (Refer to the pic )below
