E-mails from a senders in my Block Senders List

I've added a particular sender's e-mail address or Internet domain-
name to my Blocked Senders List (see examples below) but e-mails from
that sender continue going to the In Box instead of being sent to the
Junk E-Mail box..

How do I block ALL e-mails sent from a particular sender?

I've added these variations to the Blocked Senders List:

googlealerts-nore***@google.com
@google.com
google.com

1. its easier to disable the alert.
2. is the address they are sent to on the safe list or in a trusted address
book?

The last two of these are the same thing. When you add just a domain,
Outlook adds the "@" to the front. If it's not beling blocked, then perhaps
the sender address is actually different from what is presented. The From
address and the sender address don't have to match. Were I doing this, I'd
use a rule that looks in the headers for "googlealerts" and either dumps the
messages or moves them to Junk E-mail.

What version of Outlook, by the way?
