receiving many spam emails from sender renew@

Every day I receive 20-30 emails where the sender from address starts with renew@ (see image below) Outlook is placing these messages in the Junk email folder. But, every day I have to scan the Junk mail folder looking for appropriate messages that should have shown up in my Inbox.

I would like to create a Rule that automatically deletes any message in the Junk email folder who's sender name begins with "renew@"

I have actually created a rule but I cannot figure out how to run it against the Junk email folder.

    I don't know what version of Outlook desktop you are using but both in the initial rule creation and in step two above, the only option is to apply / run it against the Inbox. There is simply no other option displayed.

    I'm using Office 365 Outlook Version 2407 build 17830.20138 Click-to-Run.

    I have found however, if you manually run the rule later, it will allow you to run it against the Junk folder. I added "Run Rules Now" to the Quick Access Toolbar which helps a little, but you still need to select the rule and select the Junk folder.

    Sorry, but I have only "Create rule" and "Manage rules" under "Rules", and none of them work the way you describe... :-(

    It is ok for now. Thank you.

    Best.

    As I said in my previews post, you can create and run a macro that will apply your rule on the spam folder. Check my recipe. It works for me. I can delete often more than hundred spam emails in a second leaving only few spam emails in the folder. It’s magic.
