Hello,

Recently, two of my users have been getting a lot of emails from known good
email addresses however, the body of the junk emails all contain German.
Does anyone know what this is? Also, what is the best way to configure
outlook to block these messages? International Junk Settings/ Top Domains
won't work because they come from known email addresses.

Thank you.
 
These messages are generated by the latest variant of the Sober worm - Don't
open any attachments! The from addresses are spooofed by the worm - they're
not really coming from those addresses.
Try turning on Outlook junk mail filers. You could also set up rules to
delete these based on the subject line, though these worms tend to have many
possible subjects. Finally, talk to your ISP and/or consider deploying
enterprise class anti-spam and antivirus products.
