My Outlook has been set to Exclusive for many months. Just this week, I have been receiving junk mail in my regular inbox. The e-mail messages are NOT from senders in my contacts list. I am having to individually select each of those messages and move
them to my junk folder. From the junk folder, I am having to individually select them again and then click on "Sweep" in the menu bar and then select "Block from" on the drop down menu. This process is very time consuming. It would be much simpler if the
Exclusive setting actually worked as designed (and, as I might say had been working properly for many months). What is going on? Why, all of a sudden, is some junk mail now coming to my regular inbox rather than to the junk folder where it is supposed to
be going?
Hi... since 2 days i keep getting spam emails in my inbox. I have made all settings...changed it to exclusive so that only those that i have in my contacts can write to me. The mails i get...when i click on the arrow for addidtional information it says...you
are getting this email be course you have this sender in your contact list...or something like that....???? NEVER EVER....these are crazy things like 500 letters and numbers ....but all ending on .net
I looked through all my contacts 20 time only have my few friends and family. How can they keep coming through especially in my inbox and not at least land in the spamfile?

This is how they look like>: *** Email address is removed for privacy *** für Liberty University (*** Email address is removed for privacy ***)
It doesnt bring anything to block this...5 minutes later a new one is coming with a different sender
My inbox and junk email have always worked properly. Only mail from my contacts have been going to my inbox, but the last couple of days, all kinds of junk email is appearing in my inbox, some obscene stuff too that formerly wasn't even going to my email
address at all. I have been trying unsuccessfully to find a way to fix this for several hours now. Please tell me what to do!

I have had my Hotmail (now Outlook account for over 15 years. I have always been impressed with how junk is filtered into the Junk folder.
However, over the past few days I have started getting obvious junk mail directly into my inbox (not the Junk folder).
My junk settings are set to Exclusive, so I should only receive messages from either my contacts or addresses on my safe list into my inbox.
Today for example, I received a message Subject: Are you suitable for laser eye surgery? from *** Email address is removed for privacy *** on behalf of Optical.Express (*** Email address is removed for privacy ***). When I click into message details, it says "This sender is in your contact list". I have checked my
contact list (and my safe senders) and this contact is definitely not in my contacts.
How/why is Outlook now allowing these items into my inbox, is the 'exclusive' junk filter broken, and how to I fix it?
Any help much appreciated.
I am having junk emails delivered to my inbox - when I go into the message it says the sender is on my contact list but I have checked my list and they are not on there
Messages also being delivered to inbox despite address being on my blocked sender list
Please sort this Microsoft or I will be closing my email account!
For the past week, messages that were automatically sent to "junk" are no longer
being sent there-they are now littering our inbox.
How do we block all this spam/junk from ending up in our inbox?
Just yesterday, I started to get all my junk and spam in my inbox. I have searched this site endlessly, and done everything it says, and nothing is stopping these junk/spams from going directly to my inbox. Is there anything that can fix this? If not,
how can I advise every one of the people/businesses that email me of a new address so I don't have to use the one that is being compromised?
I have had my msn.com account set on exclusive and now my spam mail is getting into my inbox. So I put all those addresses into my blocked folde and now the emails are getting past my blocked addresses and into my inbox. What can I possibly do?
Thank you,
Martha
