Will Office 365 be able to solve my issue with outlook.live.com?
I'm hoping that someone with Office 365 Home that also uses Outlook.live.com will be able to answer this question.
My outlook.com email address has gotten on a spammers list and now when I log onto Outlook.live.com via my browser I see 20-30 emails a day from domains ending in .DE and .EUS that are showing up in my junk mail folder as Microsoft is tagging them as spam. What I've been told by someone somewhere is that since Microsoft is tagging these emails as spam and placing them in my JUNK mail folder, setting up a rule to delete these messages automatically will not work because rules only apply to message that are not tagged as spam and would end up in my Inbox. In other words what I've been told is that since they've been tagged as spam I should just leave them "as is" and let the system purge them automatically after they've been in the junk folder the prescribed amount of time. My only issue with doing this is that there are occasions where Microsoft's spam filter tags a legitimate email as spam and I need to identify the sender add them to the safe sender's list so that future messages don't end up in the junk folder. With me now getting 20-30 spam messages placed in my junk folder it's taking extra time to decide what is truly spam and what is not and this is where my question on office 365 comes in.
I currently use Office 2010 and even though I know this version will reached it's end of life next year it still is meeting my needs on both my desktop and laptop. Today while going through my junk messages I noticed that there was a message that stated that if you had office 365 you had access to Premium Outlook Support. Can anyone that has Office 365 that also uses the Outlook.live.com browser-based interface tell me what, if anything this Premium version of Live.Outlook.com can do with filtering messages that are also being identified as spam? Is there additional settings or filters that you can deploy? Can you block all message from a top level domain like .EUS?
Any explanation of what this would buy me would be appreciated because if there were additional functionality that would help me lighten the number of messages getting into the spam folder it might cause me to buy office 365. Please note that I know that Office 365 comes with Outlook for the PC but I'm only interested in what Office 365 might buy me in the way of enhanced spam handling through the Outlook.Live.Com browser interface.
Thanks again for any help.
