Is there any way to disable spam filter completely?

Neither of the moderator responses are in any way helpful or relevant! If you are either unable to understand clear written English, or if you are able but not willing to actually read what the people are writing, should you really be moderating a forum?

What we are looking for is a way to disable Outlook.com's overly aggressive filter COMPLETELY.  Again: TURN OFF THE SPAM FILTER.  NOT sit there adding thousands of people to our safe senders list.  NOT set it so that most of our e-mail goes into spam.  Why would Microsoft make it impossible for your users to disable the spam filter, when it doesn't even work properly?

I constantly have to fish false positives out of my spam folder on outlook.com, even from people to whom I have sent hundreds of e-mails, including my wife (can't outlook.com scan my Sent folder and take notice that if I have sent e-mails to these people, or if I have marked their emails as "not junk" before, that they should be automatically added to the safe list)?

Thanks. I know about "safe senders". The catch is on "new mail from new contacts" in case of false positives. In such cases, you can't necessarily know their addresses in advance.

And the irony of the situation, which illustrates it perfectly: The reply notification to my question was sent into Junk folder. :)  I didn't know about it until I logged into the webmail interface.

Ron,

Thanks for your reply.  I had already tried something like this -- instead of matching "@", I had a rule that if the subject does NOT contain "asjdfhalkdshflashfsdf" the message should be moved to Inbox.  It did not work - I was still getting mail sent to Junk.  I changed it to match your response, and once again it is not having any effect.  Do you have any other suggestions?

My thoughts exactly. :)  At least Gmail has a workaround via the use of filters, to disable spam control on-line.
