How do I block all emails ending with @jean-patrique.co.uk. So annoying - keep receiving them every 10 minutes if not often. In 2 days - 300 emails. Did try to make a email rule, but doesnt help. Any ideas?

EDIT: 16/12/2023 - a bug with the blocked and safe senders and domains lists was preventing the procedure below from working between 12th and 16th December 2023. This has now been fixed.

There is an easier solution:

  1. Log into Outlook in either the web browser or the windows Outlook app;
  2. Click on the 'cog' symbol towards the top right;
  3. Click on "Email";
  4. Click on "Junk email";
  5. Under "Blocked senders and domains" click "+Add";
  6. Type "jean-patrique.co.uk";
  7. Press 'Enter';
  8. Click "Save" at the bottom of the list.

You can check it has saved the domain by starting to type it into the search bar on the right and it should appear even before you have typed it out in full.

This way it does not matter what combination of characters that the scumbag puts in front of the '@', the spam will get caught by this domain. Even better, unlike rules, which only apply to the inbox, this applies equally to junk email, which is where I presume this spam is going, and the result is to block it completely so you won't see it at all - not even in deleted or recoverable items. This is a positive change from previously, where I believe it just ensured that blocked senders and domains went into the junk folder.

This particular gambling-obsessed scumbag changes their domain every so often - they were ******@emails.fenwick.co.uk then ******@xixvodka.com then @monsoon.co.uk then @e.newscientist.com, so you will probably need to enter another domain if the deluge resumes under another guise.

Hope this helps,

Cheers,

TE

    I have just received an email from "LoveCasino" from the domain "social.twinkl.co.uk" with wildcard letters in front of the '@'.

    I checked the IP and it is the same hosting service as for jean-patrique.co.uk.

    So, same process as before: add "social.twinkl.co.uk" to the blocked senders and domains list.

    Cheers,

    Hi. Thanks for your suggestion for a fix. However, once I try to type in Jean-partrique.co.uk I get “no results” even though I have junk email box full of messages from this domain. Any ideas?

    You need to make an entry in block senders box. Also I have found that selecting unsubscribe on the actual email (bottom of the page) also gives some success.

    Hi,

    It sounds like you are typing in the search bar of the junk folder and the reason you are getting no results is that you have spelt "partrique" instead of "patrique".

    In any case, what you need to do is click on settings (the cog symbol in the top right) and then click on Junk email > Blocked senders and domains > Add "jean-patrique.co.uk" > Save

    Note - this won't do anything to emails already in your junk, but it will block any further emails from that domain so you won't see them at all. This can be repeated for any other spam domains, but only works if the spammer uses exactly the same text after the '@' symbol. If they use wildcard letters and numbers after the '@' then it won't work.

    Cheers,

    TE
