Spammer inserted calendar appointment
I've recently started getting spam invites and after several days of browsing posts, google searches, etc. I believe I found a way to stop them as it was a pain to delete them every day. I tried all the other Calendar settings choices via searches, etc.
1. Login to your Microsoft web email.
2. Click on the Settings gear in the upper right hand corner of the screen.
3. In the second column, click on Junk email.
4. At the bottom of the screen you will see a "Filters" section. I checked both boxes for:
a. Only trust email from addresses in my Safe senders and domains list and Safe Mailing lists.
b. Block attachments, pictures, and links from anyone not in my Safe senders and domains list.
It took me a while to update my Safe senders list, but it's been a couple days and I haven't had anymore spam invites added to my calendar. I save all my non spam emails and just had to right click on a message from each email address I did want to keep, and click "Never Block Sender". Otherwise you will need to add each one manually.
Hope this helps.
