Overview
The Report Message Add-In for Outlook allows users to report suspicious or junk email messages to Microsoft. Reporting these messages allows both Microsoft and MSU Denver to better detect potential scams and update automatic block lists accordingly.
Before you begin...
- These instructions are only for people using the Outlook Desktop App. The Outlook Web App and Outlook Mobile App have integrated reporting options which don't require any additional steps to enable.
