I have an MSN email account that I access through Outlook and I’ve had it for about 20 years now. All my important communications come to that email. Lately, I’ve been getting an unbelievable amount of junk mail. I used to be able to block the sender and things would be fine for a while. Not so anymore! I emptied the junk email box 3 hours ago and already have over 50 new items in there. I checked to see if I was pwn’d, and I haven’t been.

Is there anything at all I can do? I really don’t want to have to set up a new email account because everyone that’s important already has this address (doctors, automatic payments, etc.) I know this is a longshot, but I figured if anybody knew it would be you guys. Thanks in advance.

    Same. I’ve had this account for years and lately I’ve been getting a metric ton of spam. I’ve never been pwned either.

    Worst part is that it doesn’t actually go to junk despite clearly being junk.

      Exactly! I thought I may be the only one since the account is so old, but it’s good to hear I’m not alone (no offense intended).
