Why does MS Outlook not allow global blocks
Hi,
Today i was blocking some spammers from my email and it occured to me that this could be so simple if MS Outlook would allow us to block global email address. For example why can't i block
*@*.ru.ac.thWhich just sent me a tone of junk, the senders get around this by just changing a small part of the email address but the main part the end is always the same, so why can't i block it? When i try, outlook tells me it is invalid.
Thanks
You can block it but not by the wildcard notation that you use. For your example, simply add "ru.ac.th" (without quotes) to Blocked Senders list.
