How do I block onmicrosoft.com SPAM EMAILS? I am getting relentlessly spammed and cannot seem to block these emails. This is a serious problem because about every third or forth email is this onmicrosoft.com SPAM EMAIL. I like office 365 but this is ridiculous!!!

    Yes, I know better than to unsubscribe, that only alerts them to a live victim and sells my email address to others. I have already tried blocking domains, and rules work for many, but strangely enough does not work for ONMICROSOFT. THAT is my complaint. I suspect Microsoft prevents rules from working on their precious domain money-maker. They sell that to spammers giving them an air of legitimacy - at the expense of the patience of their real clients. If what I suspect is true, they should be ashamed of trying to make money like this.

    Does anyone else feel this is unethical too?

    Over the past three weeks I've suddenly started received spam from several subdomains in the onmicrosoft.com domain. Abuse reports don't seem to do anything since some of the reported subdomains are still actively sending spam.

    I don't think I've ever seen a legitimate email from an onmicrosoft.com subdomain.

    Fortunately I use Postfix so the following line in header_checks will reject all of them:

    /^From:\s.*<*@*.onmicrosoft.com>/ REJECT No spam accepted

    Anyone gotten any feedback from MS concerning this? Ever since I found this forum post I've been sending the full headers of what our server has been getting to both report_spam and cdoccm. 265 since Dec 7th. 19 of them so far today. Beyond getting the standard auto-reply from "The Outlook Team", I haven't heard anything.
