Could someone post a screenshot please?
Thanks.

I use a hotmail email address and I've been getting multiple spam emails a day and they don't have sender addresses. If I try to reply to them, Outlook would tell me the recipient cannot be empty. I also cannot block them since there's no sender addresses to block.
This is getting extremely irritating.

2023-02-27T10:19:18+00:00 Printscreen isn't working :( But go to the 3 dots upper right in the message (next to 'reply', 'forward' etc.; don't mix it up with the dots on top of the message), then choose 'view' and then 'view message source'. Then a box opens with the HTML-code, where you can search for the '@'.

I had this problem for months, so many spam email getting into my mailbox from blank senders.
I tried a lot of rules, nothing worked, but this finally did the trick!
Thank you so much, I almost threw out my outlook account.
Why isn't this on more forums? It is the only solution.
