    Editing junk filter list

    That is the question I can't answer. Was quite normal until about 6 weeks ago. AT present, averaging 75-90 per day. Solicitations about females are about 1/2 of that now. *Mad

    Trying Office Outlook 2016, Safe lists only, no change. I also checked all (except US) on Top-Level Domain list & Encoding list as a further test.

    Morning

    Yes even on the Web version those are the two filters.

    Are yours actually on, with check marks as per your screen grab.

    What I'm still not understanding is how all this junk is getting to you. Is as if the spam filters are off for your account.

    You can certainly block domains as you suggested but the question remains why are they even getting through to spam?

    What is Junk filter and how do you do it ?

    Editing junk filter list

    Windows 10 junk mail filters are just not doing the job. I am trying this as an attempt to shorten up the list. Multiple duplicates in list just by changing one of the numbers/letters in the username keeping the domain name. i.e. look at the top entry (picked at random) you will see the complete address. I have separated it out on line 2 and then stripped off the user name then add *@ leaving the domain name shown on the 3rd line. Concept is that any address will be filtered of that domain???

    Seems like a lot of work, but Excel will convert that list in a second. (probably have a thousand or more) I have exported the list, let Excel do its thing and then import it back to the blocked list.

    Opinions appreciated.
