Still getting emails from blocked sender

Anonymous

I keep getting spam emails from the same senders even though I've already blocked their domains, as well as all of the other email addresses/domains that were found in the message sources. 

  • WHY am I still receiving messages from domains that are blocked??
  • Why is there no option to simply block a sender's I.P. address?

All of the spam I receive comes from the same 3 or 4 I.P. addresses, but they have tons of domains at their disposal to spam people with.

I don't want to resort to creating a new 'rule' every time these idiots come up with a new domain to send their spam from. So before you suggest that I create a new rule for each and every one of these email addresses, my response to that is NO. I shouldn't have to. Aside from the fact that doing such a thing would be far too time-consuming, when I block someone, I expect my email provider to perform that function properly and without fail.

    Yes, I do agree with this, as I have many times blocked many junk emails from ever coming back to my email completely. There is one email address that is one of the worst and it is removed email address for privacy and no matter what I do this still keeps coming through. I also have spent a significant amount of time using the junk mail filter an no offense Microsoft, as it does not work properly. That particular application needs to be reviewed and tested again in an beta atmosphere to make sure it is doing what is supposed to do. While you are at it create and allow user's to change there color scheme if they elect to, from this obnoxious Blue color to something else if they prefer. Touching back on the email filter, I receive hundred of junk email regarding and I have to filter this here, from all these places that are selling "Penis enlargement pills", "Testicle hardening and enlarging pills", "Looking for a ****" and on and on. It really is a waste of my time, that almost everyday I have to take time to get rid of all this trash and it keeps coming right back. Not to credit your competition, but I give credit where credit is due, but I know dozens of people who use Gmail and when something is deleted forever it never comes back to there inbox, junk box or spam.

    I am so sick and tired of blocking senders of junk mail and it just keeps coming back. It has come to the point where it is almost a part-time job monitoring my outlook email account and I am not being financially compensated for it. Microsoft should hang it's head in the deepest shame for allowing and application like this to be released live to it's users with so many problems and issues attached to it. Whatever happened to detailed quality assurance testing prior to being released into production...? Microsoft being the supposed world leader in software development fell extrememly short here on this outlook.com application. If I ever had the chance to meet Mr. Bill Gates, I would tell him to have him get his corporation in complete professional order. Both thumbs down to outlook.com...! Also, I love seeing the error message all the time on outlook.com "Something happened on our end please refresh to continue". Give me a real break...!

    I'm still receiving emails from blocked domains. Why are we not allowed to block a sender's I.P. address??

    Almost a MONTH with no response?

    I've replied and have yet to receive a response, and I'm still getting spam from domains that have been blocked.
