I am getting 6-7 emails daily from infofeed. I have blocked the domain on everyone I received. This sender keeps changing the domain. How can I stop / block infofeed emails.

Examples:

infofeed@ some store

infofeed@ infofeed@MY UPDATE PART! I finally was able to block infofeed@ spam. Now I cannot block INFO@ emails. It is noon and have had 12 so far. None of the rules I set up before is working. I am now just deleting them.

Outlook | Web | Outlook.com | Email

No, sorry for the confusion. My Outlook rule runs against the Inbox, so it finds those messages where the header info has 'infofeed' or 'info@', and moves them directly into my Deleted Items folder, bypassing my Junk folder altogether. The part you could not read was an additional action I set up to forward the message 'as an attachment' (which is the only way I could get it to forward) to Microsoft's phishing email address [phish at office365 dot microsoft dot com.] I want to forward all of these to them so they can work on a solution. So this is now keeping my Junk folder clean, and I set the properties on my Deleted Items folder to display only the number of Unread messages so I can verify they are truly all junk. To do this, right-click on your Deleted Items folder, select Properties, and then Show Number of Unread Items. Hope this helps!

    I received my last "infofeed" spam email on 10/06. This was after forwarding as attachments 700 emails to "******@apwg.org; ******@office365.microsoft.com". So far so good. I have been received other emails from a "@newsu.live" and "@yourdaily.lve", but only 3-4 a day. Forwarding them as attachments to the above referenced emails as well.

    My infofeed and info emails just changed to info+. Just hard to stay ahead. As soon as I report these they roll to deleted.

    I dont see the point of moving junk mail from the junk folder to deleted items. The junk folder has protection so you can open the files to examine them. Note the flag at the top of emails in the junk folder "links and functionality have been disabled" including html formatting so you only see text.

    the deleted items folder has no such protection which is also why I find absurd that the junk mail reporting extension moves the reported mails to the deleted folder when it should really empty the items completely.

    "permanently delete" is the safer option to use with these rules. You get a copy of the reported mails as attachment in "sent items" in case of erroneous deletion

    I'm happy to say I have had no more "infofeed" junk mail since 10/6 when i first sent to apwg, and total load is down to around 10 e-mails per day. Still getting 2 or 3 from "microsoft account team" to my main account and 1 or 2 "dating website" emails.

    The targeted travel account is now receiving emails from illogical accounts like "xyztrvudhl AT hlwyhdvb.com, (randomly typed) does anyone know how to filter rules for such accounts?
