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!

    You might have noticed that more people have problems with that solution than have benefited from it. You might also have noticed that someone mentioned an expiration coming up.

    The problem lies in the lack of a proper remedy within the Outlook spam handling framework.

    Sooner or later the Microsoft team that handles Outlook will be looking for the bad actor that is obviously overwhelming the mail servers.

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

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

    I followed the instructions posted several days ago, with limited success. Only when I changed the last step by clicking in the ID field then pasting triggerOutputs()?['body/Id'] next to the fx in the expression field, then clicking OK, then save, as suggested by Mohammad did I reach 100% success.
