Too much junk / spam: Junk folder becoming to inundated
20 year user moving to new platform. Flooded my junk box with advertisements now I have to search for any emails that may be of value to me that don't automatically filter to my inbox. It's a shame.

looking at the message source there's thousands and thousands of entries like this:
kU-v0-{my email address}@hotmail.com
TA-rW-{my email address}@hotmail.comhow does this make it through your filters and into my inbox? despite me blocking all the senders and the domains?

I've been getting huge amounts of spam the last several months. These are obvious spam messages. How is outlook not catching all this?

Too much junk mail, how to get rid of it? Blocking does not help. Can't use email properly...veeeery slow. Nothing helps. Otherwise computer is working very well.

Yes, it's over 1,600 and counting. Not stopping. !!@#!
I suggest doing what another member mentioned a while back:
Step 1: Create a Google Account.
Step 2: Go to Gmail Settings and add your hotmail/outlook account (using Gmailify)
Step 3: Enjoy a junk free inbox.
I did 1 and 2 and hope to see 3 very soon. -
It's up to 350 in each folder and not stopping! This is crazy! I'll never be able to stop it and it will be impossible to unsubscribe to endless sites.
-
And in addition, in less than 5 minutes I have received 250 in my Junk folder and another 225 and counting in my Inbox, all confirmations that I signed up for newsletters to assorted companies all over the world. I did not! I'm running my virus checker but nothing... and how do I possibly unsubscribe to all these???

10 seconds ago I was blocking a spam in my junk mail and al of a sudden it was being filled with a hundred spams, and at the same time, my Inbox too! What just happened????

Hello. I don't expect a reply now with all this virus issue.
I have correspondent before about this, but the problem is still here. I see many junk E-mails in my inbox; as much as I put the sender IP in junk list and block the sender, no use! They probably come from a new IP. For some, when I open the Msg source, the window is blank & it makes the CPU usage near 100% & I get a "wait" or "cancel" Msg from browser. I am willing to authorize you to access my account & follow it for a month or so, if this helps. I am really tired of this problem and I don't have it w/ my Gmail. At the same time, some nonjunk E-mails are in junk folder!!
Thank you -

anthony.page.pr@nexuschief.usPlease block this spammer. They keep changing the return address but it's the same sh** every time.
While you're at it, this one too: mxahd@ggfdpwmlgsns.jamesrodrigoorders.club The address varies but always has jamesrodrigoorders in it.

Dear Microsoft
Seems like you managed to block the infamous "newsletter" spammer but they found a new MO to make their spam look legit. Same spam, different email address. You can see the pattern here; can you find a way to block it? Thanks

Now the rubbish in the junk folder is down to 4 or so a day (from over 100 a few months ago), but the junk folder still claims to have an extra 20 emails than the ones visible) and trash folder has one invisible email permanently. Also, there is at least one junk mail in the inbox since last week, which is a new thing. Just so pathetic, what is wrong with outlook? I have stopped it forwarding mail to my new address with a different provider as it can't be trusted at all. The new one gets no junk at all, pretty much like my outlook account until about 6 months ago when it suddenly broke.
