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!

    I'm experiencing the same problem. I've blocked, I've unsubscribed, and created a rule and yet they keep coming. 5 in the last 30 minutes. WTH?!

    As of today, I estimate I will receive around 100 before the end of the day. This is beyond laughable for a company with over $3.5T+ in valuation.

    Just tell the Administrators to block the f'ing domain already! And if that doesn't work, build a damn filter to redirect these emails to Delete.

    We can't do it from our end!

    Fix it!

    Microsoft's response is lame, block the sender already. I've got 34 just this morning and counting, enough!!

    Thirty-two emails from gostarmedia so far today. Microsoft doesn't allow domain blocking. That is why I'm deleting my Outlook. Microsoft is either ignorant or complicit with this kind of spam.
