Hi,
Please see attached e mail. The links do not work.
I am getting three or more e mails from this sender a day in my Hotmail account junk folder. I have added to my blocked senders list but can't seem to block this address?
I know I can open new e mail account, however this is inconvenient.
Do you have any suggestions I could try?
Thankfully, I have no need to use their product <LOL>

Yeah, just check your junk folder from time to time for false positives, mark the folder read and move on.
And why thinking about getting a new email address? Do you move houses every time you find junk in your letter box? To stay with this analogy, the landlord was even so kind to move the junk in the provided bin

Add this to your blocklist: "*@movingahead101.com" and it will stop these emails.

Thanks for your suggestions> I have created message rule blocking subject and [EMAIL="*@movingahead101.com"]*@movingahead101.com[/EMAIL] . That works for other spam but doesn't work for this sender."A nation's greatness is measured by how it treats its weakest members." ~ Mahatma Gandhi

I am well aware of how the junk filter works. Note: "Your junk email filter is set to exclusive."
The subject of my post is the block sender function is not working for multiple spam / day from this sender."A nation's greatness is measured by how it treats its weakest members." ~ Mahatma Gandhi

The point is, why worry? The junk filter is doing its job in stopping it getting to your inbox, the spammer will change domain as soon as the spam stops getting through and you will have to repeat the blocking.0
