Outlook blocking domains - I'm doing something wrong!

[jimmydash]

My mate sent me an email, I didnt get it, he tried again, no arrival. I checked my "Blocked Domains" in junk and found
outlook.com
gmail.com and
hotmail.co.uk

I do choose to block individual senders but wouldnt ever choose to block these 3 domains. What am I doing wrong?

Do you have a version of Outlook older than Outlook 2007? It should be hard to do it on any version of Outlook after 2007

Not sure how you could accidentally do it!

It's easy to do if you intend to do so:

I agree, that's straightforward to do................but I didnt (knowingly) choose to block every emaill address from gmail, outlook and H.co.uk

Is it feasible you've been 'hacked'?

Several hacked users here have had a rule set up deleting all email sent by any address including '@' - I guess the hackers do this to delay the victim realising what's happened.

Interesting, I didn't think of a hack, I thought it was me being stupid, I have current cyber security in 2 forms and see no sign of a hack but will run a cleanser just in case.

Change your password anyway - never a bad idea.
