Microsoft Outlook Question

PickyPicky3 · ‎10-22-2018

Since the newest Outlook update, I can't find any way to mark an e-mail as junk.

Outlook does a great job of screening out spam, but for three weeks some disgusting x-rated messages have been getting through. Of course I delete, but there's no way to block that sender like before.

Has that function been moved somewhere else?

I just found it. It was moved behind the three dots ... at the top of the page.

I am so tired of all these updates. All of a sudden you can't find something or it doesn't work like it did before.

@PickyPicky3 This is the main thing I can't stand about Microsoft. The constant moving around and renaming of everything. It's so stupid and unnecessary. WHY do this? What does Microsoft gain by this shuffling around? I haven't used my laptop in a few years now and just use my iPad. I bet if I tried to use the laptop I'd feel like I was back in the '90s trying to use my computer for the first time. I'd have to learn what everything is called and where in the computer I'd find it. The second thing I couldn't stand is the ridiculously long time it took to update.

@kitty60 @I couldn't agree more. They hide where things are and they rename them. They waste our time. I don't know why they keep doing this and I don't know why users are mistreated this way.

I haven't been able to stop these x-rated e-mails because, like spoofed calls, the sender's e-mail address constantly changes. My junk filter doesn't catch them. My junk filter level is already set quite high.

Any ideas of something else to try?

Delete, delete, delete. Just like robo calls, these are computer generated and change e-mail addresses, just like phone numbers, and get through any filter. If you have Comcast, you can forward them to abuse@comcast.net which is what I do. How much it helps? I don't know but I feel better for at least making someone aware if the disgusting filth and scams coming to my inbox.

Hello Ladies, I am totally computer illiterate so please figive me for asking this silly(?) queston.

I have a HP and all of a sudden my individual Email Delete isn't working. I found the three dots you were referring to earlier but I don't know which one \would apply for my needs. I certainly would appreciate any help you could give me. TIA.
