WHY AM I SO LOVED BY MEXICANS ???
Hola,
is anybody else having this annoyance ?
i am receiving up to 27 spams in spanish daily !
i would just delete them without going through the messages but i have occasionally found some that i did need to read, all in english.
is there a solution to this minor problem  ?
BJIEN SALUD, DA RAT

I'm not getting any Spanish Spam (would that be spama, or spamo?)
Does it show up in your in box, or junk?

Dont just delete - BLOCK them. Just before you block them, you can see where they're coming from. Or check your blocked list to see sender.

This is how with Outlook Live:
Go into Junk folder. Check box for "View All". When you do that, it "checks" all your junk emails (you could do each one individually too, but
usually I want to block all), and there appears a menu just above for different things you can do with them. To the right, you will see "Block".
Click on that and you will see all the junk emails listed. This is where you can look at the complete email address and see if they're coming from one
source or many. Go over them to be sure there isn't something you really don't to block. Then click Block All. There's a way to get into your
blocked email addresses to manually add someone's email address and it saves this list.

Outlook is what Hotmail used to be called. It's the free email with Microsoft. That's what I use and what I know. I'm definitely not a computer
genius (!). I'm on a PC. And I own a flip phone that I rarely use.
