I am getting spam email 25-50 times a day. How do I stop this I have blocked contacts and sent them to junk as well.

They just keep coming! Also a lot of them are marked UK in their contact email. Please help … I have had this address for at least 20 years and is established with many important places and it would take a lot to start a new email address.

Thank you

    Hello Kimala Clark

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

    I understand that you have an issue blocking unwanted emails to your Outlook for mobile. Let’s work together in finding the best resolution to this issue.

    For me to better understand the issue, I’d like to ask a few questions:

    • What is the domain of the account in your Outlook? Gmail.com, Outlook.com or Hotmail.com.
    • Are all the emails in your junk folder having the same domain?

    If you're receiving unwanted email, you can block the email addresses and domains you don't want to receive messages from. Add any email address or domain to your blocked senders list to move these messages directly to your Junk Email folder.

    1. At the top of the page, select SettingsSettingsView all Outlook settings.
    2. Select Mail > Junk email.
    3. If you want to block an email address, enter the email address under Blocked senders and select Add. If you want to block all email from a domain, enter the domain name under Blocked domains and select Add.
    4. Select Save.

    Let us know the result and we will get back to you as soon as we can.

    We look forward to your response.

    Regards,
