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.

    You can definitely forward from MSN to something else. I have my ooooold MSN email forwarded to my Gmail. I would take the time to make a whitelist in your MSN acct for all the actual real stuff and just have that forwarded.

      I will start this week. It’s one of those things that I’ve known that I should do for a very long time, but just have been putting off because it’s a pain in the butt. I guess how’s the time, huh?
