Rules for junk
PLEASE add rules for junk mail. I often get mail in my junk mail that is actually useful, so I look in there often. Lately, I've been getting SO MANY phishing emails from Save Yourself trying to "blackmail" me into sending them bitcoin, and it automatically goes to my junk folder, but I want anything with the words "Save Yourself" to be deleted so I don't have to look at it. Their emails contain an old password of mine, and their emails are all different, so even if I block one, I'll get another email from a different address in about an hour. I'm so sick of it. It is ridiculous that rules cannot be applied to your junk folder.

I now see a warning that junk emails will now be deleted automatically after 10 days?!? That's crazy given the amount of real mail getting incorrectly diverted into the junk folder. Why do I have to spend so much human effort tending the junk folder. I'd rather not have a junk folder at all, than lose potentially important emails.

So many important emails go to Junk that I have to go through about 100 junk emails daily to find them, and it's the same old phishing, obnoxious, and sales gimmicks but since Rules don't apply in Junk, there's no way to reduce the number.
Seems like a simple solution, unless maybe you're being paid off by the junk senders, so you really don't care about us customers. -

For YEARS now, I have WAY too many extremely important emails going to junk even after I have added the sender to whitelist or marked them as NOT JUNK. I have missed critical emails from the courts, from the IRS, the California Bar, etc etc etc... and yet REAL spam and phishing and hoax emails are reaching my inbox!! I am SO SICK OF IT!!!! It does not matter WHAT I DO, my MOST IMPORTANT EMAILS END UP IN THE JUNK FOLDER.
C'mon now, WHY IS THIS HAPPENING????

Yes please! This junk mails coming from Nigeria, Benin etc shouln´t enter more our email addresses just to make lose time and efforts. I starve for years but still everyday I am notified being the inheritant of huge amounts from those countries on which I never ever in my life met someone. You already know which those mails are, shouldn´t even go to spam folder BUT RETURNED TO THEM.
Thanks for considering this. -

Several e-mails from different job-applications were marked as junk. It would be okay if they would have been synced with the junk-folder in my email program (Outlook 2016) but they weren't.

Rules aren't working against spammers. I tried everything.

Can't agree more. Why MS is still dragging it's feet over this simpler extension to Rules is beyond me. Utterly ridiculous situation.

Just a switch to turn off junk mail filter would solve the problem as existing filter rules for inbox would sort out unwanted mails.
Rules would have to be defined only once - no extra rules for junk folder!Excluding junk folder from existing rules makes rules senseless because the junk folder runs as a second inbox besides INBOX.

20-year user with few issues. Last few months worse than ever, 30+ spam per day from variants of the same address. Because they get sent straight to junk the rules don't apply to them and that needs fixing.

If you mark something 'NOT JUNK" it should automatically be entered into the "Safe Senders" list. This seems obvious and I was surprised to find that this isn't what happens.

I have just spent 20 minutes trying to move messages from junk to inbox and your algorithm keeps on moving them back to junk for me before I can do anything with them. I agree some user rules would be useful in particular for emails I am forwarding from another one of my accounts to this one. Thanks.

I get useful emails that should be in my inbox in my junk mail. I want them in my inbox. All facebook notifications need to be in my inbox. All important emails from utility companies, phone companies, satellite companies, internet need to be in my inbox.

Try blocking the domain name; the portion after the @ symbol. Go into setting for junk mail and add it to blocked senders. I finally got rid of @datapound.club that way.
