For at least two weeks, I've been inundated with spam from the domain gostarmedia.com. I've created the following "solutions" all without success.

Rules

Sender Address Includes "gostarmedia" (without quotes)

Categorize as Spam

Move to Junk Email

Junk Mail

*@gostarmedia.com

gostarmedia.com

It would be really great if Hotmail could stop letting ****clowns like these from getting through if someone enters a valid domain. That or allow more wildcards (e.g. *@*.gostarmedia.com), instead of only allowing it in place of usernames preceding the @.

Today, I searched and deleted 16 out of 18 Junk Mail emails, that had the gostarmedia.com domain in their addresses.

Thanks!

    All working now. Thanks to everyone who helped, I'd never have got it working without your assistance.

    MS probably doesn't care if a few dozen of us complain or even raise hell. I know it makes me far less inclined to purchase or use any software or hardware from them that I don't have to. I makes me feel like they are so big that things like this are insignificant.

    With all the capital and effort being put into AI, why don't they put it to work weeding out dangerous email?

    In the first box I should have double clicked to open it up, because yes inside there is the junk folder.

    How much is gostmedia.com paying MS to put between 50 and 100 spam emails in my inbox every day?

    Seem to remember I had the same problem.

    Try using your keyboard -

    Press and hold the Ctrl key (or Cmd key on a Mac) and then press the V key. The copied or cut content will be pasted at the cursor's position.

    Thanks, that worked. Microsoft really make things complicated, it's like an army obstacle course.
