How can I get spam emails from these senders to stop? They are in the junk folder, so rules don't work.

    I just Reported THREE HUNDRED emails from preview@ in my Junk Folder. We all need to be reporting these and maybe Microsoft will do something about them (although doubtful). Even allowing a rule to run in the Junk folder and not just the Inbox would help.

    Yes! If Microsoft could develop a rule to totally Block emails from "renew@xxx" or "preview@xxx", it sure would be great!!!

    Thanks for replying! With so many people responding to having the same identical problems, it would be reasonable to say everyone is just not opening the wrong email and within hours having 300 plus flooding our junk e-mail box. I had one person say it is the user’s responsibility, not Microsoft. I don’t get that! I’m using Thunderbird now and it does have a functional way to send these to the trash. I had no issues before we had to use the crummy online version of outlook.

    This is unacceptable. With all the buzz about AI (and even without AI), Microsoft should be smart enough to detect and preemptively destroy this time of spam email. Furthermore, forensic teams working in conjunction with law enforcement should be able to track down the source of these annoying messages and arrest them.
