This is one of the best iOS 16 features. The amount of spam/scam messages I receive have gone down a lot.

+1, I have it on my iPhone 7 whenever somebody sends me an SMS/iMessage from a not saved number
could you tell me where can I find this setting?
Honestly, I can’t. I did not change any setting regarding the Messages app, and my iPhone ‘isn’t that old’, because 2-3 months ago I did a complete factory reset, where I manually restored my phone to the state it was before that (to eliminate any ‘bad code’ my Icloud backup may contain). So I can assure you I did not change any setting regarding.
PS: Are you on the latest IOS it supports? I’m on IOS 15.7.1, and it promts the 15.7.2 update, but I have it.
Edit: I looket it up and it should be this setting in your Messages settings, but in theory it should be on for this, but as you see mine is off.
This setting has nothing to do with the post, rather the one in the picture just divides up your messages app into different sections depending on if you have the interacted numbers in various conversations as saved or not.
Then the Apple forum thread was misleading (users discussed it so it may be), thanks for clearing up!
Not a setting. If you receive a text from an unknown number this will automatically show up.
When you receive a txt and you are reading it, you should sen”report junk” or something similar to that right under the message, it could be easy to miss
