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!

    The message Id should be this expression because they are using a single quote (') after "@" which is causing the flow failed and return error "Id is malformed." It should be

    In the dynamic content popup, click on "Expression" tab.
    Paste this:

    triggerOutputs()?['body/Id']

    Click OK (or Update).

    Now mine is working 100%"

    Here is a thought - since "gostarmedia.com" is a KNOWN spammer even to the genius team at Outlook, and ALL outlook users are being overwhelmed by this spammer's domain (I have been averaging over 70 emails daily all from gostarmedia.com) and since the good people at Outlook supposedly actually care about the customer experience (or possibly they want us all to migrate to Gmail since amazingly Gmail does NOT have this issue with spammers), and since spamming is definitely illegal in the Outlook world terms of use, then WHY doesn't Outlook simply fully block anything from gostarmedia.com - doesn't matter what they put in front of their domain name as none of it is legit - no need to even deliver to junk folder just block it?

    Would truly love to hear from the actual leader of Outlook email delivery to understand the reason why Outlook loves to deliver blatantly malicious spam to their customers and is so inept at protecting their customers email folders.

    Consider the burden that Outlook servers are experiencing. Then consider how unGreen this is.

    That is what I have. (see my post earlier)

    I don't see any mention of Junk Mail folder. I will create a new one just like yours and see if it works.

    Seems like gostarmedia.com is blowing up the Community page. Just got a message that the Outlook forum will be moving to Microsoft Q&A (Microsoft Q&A | Microsoft Learn).
