Sending, receiving, and organizing email in Outlook.com
It didn't work. I couldn't create the rule for the emails that are already in the junk folder. :-(

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.

Wow, thanks a lot! Will try...
Yes, that's exactly what I did, hoping that there will bemany of us reporting...
Here is a simple solution I used to delete every email from renew@ or preview@ for PC user. ( sorry for the Web).
First create a rule:
Be sure to select the 2 first option on the Step 2: Setup rule options
The name of your Junk email and deleted folder will be different from mine.
Create a VBA macro:
Sub renew()
Dim oStores As Outlook.Stores
Dim oStore As Outlook.Store
Dim olRules As Outlook.Rules
Dim myRule As Outlook.Rule
Dim olRuleNames() As Variant
Dim name As Variant
Set oStores = Application.Session.Stores
For Each oStore In oStores
On Error Resume Next
name = "******@outlook.com"
If oStore.DisplayName = name Then
Set olRules = oStore.GetRules()
For Each name In olRuleNames()
For Each myRule In olRules
myRule.Execute ShowProgress:=True, Folder:=oStore.GetDefaultFolder(olFolderJunk)
Next
Next
End If
Next
End Sub
You will need to add the developer tab to access VBA and create project.
Then add the macro to your Quick access tool bar.
Press the button Project 1.renew and all email from renew@ or preview@ will be move to the deleted folder.
good luck!
