receiving many spam emails from sender renew@

Anonymous

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.

    Seems? It's a fact there are many spam victims and it's been going on and off for years. It's a whack a mole game between spammers and email providers.

    Yes, I meant the "renew" and "preview" group...

    How long should it last before they react?

    @Ron6576 How did you contact support? I cannot figure out how to do so and I also am experiencing countless emails from renew@ that just a few days ago now started coming from preview@. I'd like to report this somehow but cannot figure out how/where to do so.

    Hi,

    I am using Outlook Web Mail.

    There are three menu choices at the top Home, View, Help.

    Select Help and you see three options below.

    Select Feedback. On the far right side of the screen you get Feedback options.

    You get three options: give a compliment, report a problem, make a suggestion

    Choose report a problem

    Type a description of the problem below in the text box then scroll down and click Submit

    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!
