Last week, my personal Outlook email started getting ~50 spam emails per day. I barely ever use this email address, so I am not sure how or why this began to happen. How can I stop all of this spam from getting to my inbox?
I have been flagging all of the emails as spam, but it doesn't seem to be stopping the influx of emails I am getting.

i'm sure microsoft makes lots of money doing this to us; you can eliminate, block, report fishing, unsubscribe ad nauseum and they will just come up with new ones
You know there is no need to completely put aside. As mentioned I stop using it as “main mail”, then just moving the most important stuff and noticing your contacts about the change should be enough.
For others secondary things, notifications, subscriptions and etc. just leave them untouched and revise the outlook from time to time (and for make cleaning).
i agree. that nelson guy gives no help. who has the **** time to click email one by one, flag, report, etc. over and over. nobody wants to do this. gmail is very great at blocking. outlook not at all. they can but they choose not to. outlook is as **** as yahoo. i deleted my spam folder at 8 this morn. i had 150 spam emails a few min ago. im tired of this **** myself and im at the point that i no longer wish to keep my hotmail email because of nostalgia. peace of mind is outweighing that. nelsons as worthless as geeksquad.
GMail does NOT have a lock on a better system!
I get plenty of SPAM through gmail. Plus it also filter non-spam into the junk folders.
And some of the SPAM I get with other servers come from spammers using gmail addresses.
I have few issues with my Comcast account, but I only use it for a very specific purpose ... but even there it has started to receive junk mail.
There is a larger systemic issue going on that NONE of the email servers or email client providers have been able to resolve.
And it will not belong before this is the case with text messages. As one goes, so goes the next.
Just today I got entries in my Calendar!! You must be kidding me. Invitations pointing to Google docs to accept or decline.
Revised and all my outlook calendars are private, none public or published, so it is supposed for all them to be PRIVATE!
This is hilarious. Well then removing Outlook Calendars from sync too.
