Outlook 2016 for Mac (aka Outlook for Mac for Office 365) has some changes compared to Outlook for Mac 2011 in regards to Junk Email Protection. This blog post will explain how Outlook 2016 for Mac handles Junk Email Protection. Please see the previous Blog post for more information on how Outlook for Mac 2011 handles Junk Email Protection.
The first item to understand is that there are two types of junk email filtering: sever-side and client-side. Server-side junk filtering takes place on the mail server (such as Exchange) as soon as email arrives in the mailbox. Client-side junk filtering takes place on the client (such as Outlook & Outlook for Mac) when the email is downloaded from the server to the client. Outlook 2016 for Mac does not provide any client-side junk mail protection for any type of account (Exchange, POP, or IMAP). Instead, it relies solely on the mail server to perform all junk email filtering. Emails are not scanned client-side by Outlook 2016 for Mac to determine if they are junk email. Exchange servers provide server-side junk mail filtering, and most popular email providers, such as Hotmail, Outlook.com, Gmail, and Yahoo, provide server-side junk mail filtering, making client-side Outlook junk filtering redundant.
You can check the Account Settings dialog box in Outlook for the types of e-mail accounts in your Outlook profile. On the Tools menu, click Account Settings. On the E-mail tab, the Type column lists the type of account for each entry.
It’s important to understand that junk mail filtering and blocked senders are not the same thing, although they are often used in conjunction. Junk filtering is when emails headers and content is scanned for characteristics that makes the email likely to be junk. When you add an email address to the Blocked Senders list, emails from that email address are always moved to the Junk E-Mail folder. I’ll cover and in more depth later in this blog post. Under the Outlook menu, Preferences, Junk in Outlook 2016 for Mac, you will find that there is no longer a Junk Email Protection Level setting, as there was in Outlook for Mac 2011. This is shown in the image below. Outlook 2016 for Mac no longer has the 'Level' tab as Outlook for Mac 2011 did. 
Note: While Outlook for Mac 2011 did contain the Junk Email Protection Level settings, when connected to an Exchange account, it did not perform any junk email scanning.
