Somehow my e-mail got in the wrong hands, and for weeks I'm getting multiple spam e-mails daily. They show they're from two senders, one is newsletters@cnet.online.com, with newsletters often in a weird font.

I've repeatedly had hotmail 'block sender' and it has no effect. Ideas?

As several others mentioned in your last thread about Hotmail, you really should look at switching to another email provider like Gmail.

It will eliminated a lot of the headaches you have talked about. If you want to keep using Hotmail, you will just have to put up with certain things like this because their email service / filters aren't very good at all.

I used Hotmail for many years. But I also ran into issues and as soon as I jumped to an @gmail , all of my problems went away!!
