I received an email today from:
ConsolidationAtNational Debt <missing_mailbox>
MISSING MAILBOX? Now you allow and encourage spammers by allowing them to completely avoid identifying themselves? I've had problems with your spam filters for years, but this? And this is your NEW AND IMPROVED email system?

Whaaaat? Mine are working. Be careful. You can write filters that individually or in combination include and/or exclude any/everything.

I am also a 30 year Comcast customer. I'll add my experience. Since Comcast does NOTHING, I have turned off spam filtering because it interferes with filters. And, I have been adding new filters almost every day. I currently have about 50, but I have virtually stopped spam. I still get one or two a week. I ignore the sender email address entirely because they are either stolen or made up and they change. I enter the Sender/Subject, examples: Silver-Singles, zippy loan, Roofing Survey, Wells Fargo, ZenDeals, crepe erase, and then _Crepe_Erase- when they changed it, lyft, linkedin, Evite, MemberSurvey-Customer Satisfaction, etc... Then I direct them to the Spam folder. If I'm convinced that it is working correctly, I change that to Discard so that I never see them and the spam folder doesn't get too full too soon. You can't kill 'em all. Good luck.

By designating an email spam, you have not created a filter. You are correct though. Comcast does nothing to sensitize the system to (over time) recognise those things you designate as spam. In my experience they never go away if all you do is click the spam link. You must actually write code and create a filter targeted at that sender. Click on the wheel icon in the upper right corner and then settings, and then filter rules.

I turned off Comcast spam filtering as Bruce suggested above. So, only my personal filters were doing anything. I still get spam occasionally. It's always a new sender(subject), or a slightly different representation of a known sender(subject). Ignore email addresses. They're always stolen or made up. You waste your time filtering on them. You can't kill 'em all. And you will collect new ones as you explore your web.

Thanks again Bruce. I was unable above to prove your theory by deleting the filters to document events as you described them but I have now turned off spam filtering and my filters appear to be working. This is indeed a solution.

No, my issue has not been resolved. I cannot "discard" emails sent from dscc.org.

This suggestion is interesting. So, I deleted all of my filters just to see how these offending emails are handled and I just found one in my inbox. So, thanks for the suggestion but it doesn't appear to apply here. I will recreate a filter and try again.

Not intentionally, no. However, session cookies are allowed and this email window is up all day (down over night).

I have, over time, created about 10 variations of this filter. I shouldn't have to go beyond it's sender, "<info@dscc.org>". I have the full version shown at the left and "dscc.org" and the occasional "ACTION@dscc.org" But Comcast does not seem to want to discard this sender for me. So, I have created and deleted and renewed these a couple times. I think that's a yes to your question. Thanks for the idea.

I have created a number of email filters attempting to "discard" anything I receive from "dscc.org". All say "discard". However, all the dscc.org emails are being dropped in the spam folder instead. This shows me that dscc.org emails are being identified, recognized and moved but not discarded. What am I doing wrong?

This "sticky" says that the language setting on the cable box may have been accidentally changed. Well, that was done by Comcast. Have you seen how many complaints there are about this problem? Comcast needs to accidentally change it back.
