"Add Sender to Blocked Sender's List" not working

[Dee]

Blocked email and blocked domains don't seem to be working properly. I
continue to received spam emails in the junk folder that I have already
placed on the "Add Sender to Blocked Sender's List" and "Add Domain to
Blocked Sender's List".

If they go to the Junk E-mail folder, that is what they are supposed
to do.

Once I block the sender, shouldn't all future emails (from that sender) be
blocked from being received?

 

[Gary VanderMolen]

No. Windows Mail needs to download the message in order to inspect it.
Once it is inspected and judged to be 'Junk' or 'blocked', it is then placed
in the Junk E-mail folder.

I am having the same problem that Dee described. It is often (not always) as
if I have never tried to block the sender or domain. The e-mails continue to
land in my inbox. Likewise, unblocking doesn't seem to have any effect on
e-mails I want to receive, but which are going to the junk box.
