    Can I block incoming emails in Ouitlook 2010 to "old" domain name?


    I was wondering if the following is possible to setup in Outlook 2010, which I am running.

    I have had my current email address for about 15 years. For the first three, it was:

    xxxxxxx@bellatlantic.net

    but then they merged with Verizon, and it is now:

    xxxxxxxx@verizon.net

    Of course, any email sent to the old domain gets auto-forwarded. Verizon has told me that they have no plans to stop doing that.

    The problems is that 95% of the junk-mail I get nowadays is address to the OLD "bellatlantic.net" domain.

    Is there a way to setup my Outlook 2010 that ANY emails coming in to the bellatlantic.net, will be AUTOMATICICALLY rejected and/or DELETED from the ISP server. Bascially, Outlook (or my iPhone) would never even download these emails.

    I am afraid if somehow not making the setup right and accidently blocking my xxxxxx.verizon.net emails.

    Thanks for any and all input!

    Yes I have, but I am a little confused since its not dealing with keywords. These are domain names.

This is probably the wrong place to post this topic, so I welcome any idea on where I should post it. In Windows Live Mail you can right click a message and choose block domain. It takes me 8 clicks plus copying and pasting to do the same thing in outlook 2010. I would hope there is a quicker...
