I am getting as many as 50 emails a day from appspot.com

the emails come in many forms - examples:

  • ******@bjallthebj.appspot.com
  • ******@facebokmessenger.appspot.com
  • ******@datingnowclub.appspot.com

***and many other versions

I have been blocking them, but think I have reached my limit of blocked senders

MS support states you can have up to 1,024 addresses or domains in the blocked senders and safe senders lists

I have diligently been reporting them as phishing & blocking them daily - but seems there is no remedy?

***is there anything I can do to stop these emails from coming in?

    Spam has decidely dropped.  Spam about dating and sex hook-ups dropped completely off for about four weeks, then started up again, and now have stopped again.  Spam filter in Hotmail is still buggy - I repeatedly designate certain emails from the spam folder as not junk, but they always end up in the spam folder anyway, as do all these comments from Microsoft Community - go figure...

    Hope everyone is staying healthy and sane!

    The thing i think is funny about a lot of the appspot spam is its a google domain , i tryed complaining to google that was a waste of time even after pointing out that a lot of the spam says they are facebook message and log on by hitting the link in the message so scammers are trying to get your password and info and various other fake email links trying to scam . Makes you wonder why google dont have rules in place to stop scammers using one of their domains for this kind of activates.

    I have tried creating several rules but none of them help, and I have gotten over 50 emails from "appspot" addresses a day sometimes even after trying to create rules.
