It appears that since last time I had any contact with the powers that be behind Office365 (see https://bsdly.blogspot.com/2018/02/a-life-lesson-in-mishandling-smtp.html <https://bsdly.blogspot.com/2018/02/a-life-lesson-in-mishandling-smtp.html>) they appear to have abandoned any pretense at having any abuse reporting address.
The junk@ address that they supplied back in 2018 for reporting purposes does produce auto-replies, as do the abuse@ addresses in the parent domains. However, that does not appear to affect the steady stream of, of all things, Chinese language spam aimed at a few special-purpose addresses here. See https://www.bsdly.net/~peter/hotmail-office365/ <https://www.bsdly.net/~peter/hotmail-office365/> for recent samples of the junk. The problem with outlook.com <http://outlook.com/> and all other Microsoft-attached services is that you can’t usefully blacklist them since a largish subset of quite ordinary businesses and individuals use those services for legitimate purposes. So if anybody here has contact info for actual flesh-and-blood adult humans that could be persuaded to look into this, I would be most grateful to be contacted off-list. All the best, Peter N. M.
