I reported two phishing scams to Outlook by clicking on the drop down "report phishing scam" in the Outlook mail app. Where does the phish e-mail go and is it reported to the genuine company, in this case a bank? Also, why can't a suspicious e-mail be forwarded to a reporting agency without opening it and exposing my computer and possibly my contact list to the bad guys?

Your reply has absolutely no relationship to the question that was asked. Adblock is good but apparently it does not in any way help MS to deal with Phishing Mails. Nor do boobs.
Yes, it really is off topic.
In no way does it address the question that was asked
Actually, he was replying specifically to Thomas Whitman's post about receiving pop-ups on his MSN Homepage screen.
AdBlock would indeed stop those.
It represents a divergence of computerism into our own privacy, which is in my opinion, describes the mission of junk, spam email, sent without our request, and subjecting us to all sorts of nonsense we, I think, don't need without being asked.
The junk is gaining and I see a plateau in site with help of available programs found here like spamdoc. Thank you. OUT R/Tom
