Domain names in blocked senders list are not blocked.

I can't confirm that any of my Blocked Senders List are being blocked, but in
particular, "@zeveryone.com" blasts a lot of spam through every day. (I've
found others as well.)

Ignoring the fact that blocked senders is not a good way to filter spam, do
you have junk email set to high? Do you have the latest SP installed? Is the
domain on the messages the exact one in the blocked list? Do you have
another antispam program installed?

If you have the latest sp2s and want to try something, you can delete the
junk email rule. Outlook will rebuild it. Instructions at
http://www.outlook-tips.net/howto/fix_junk.htm. Be sure to let us know if it
fixes it.

My junk mail is set to high. I have the latest downloads from MS. The
domains are EXACT. I have no other SPAM blocker installed.

I loaded Outlook Spy but I don't get the second screen shot as shown, only
three
rows, not the many shown. (Message Manager, Rules Organizer, Messages).
