    @Outlook What does it take to get some help here?! You never responded to my original message over a month ago, and I’m still not getting an answer from you now. This spam situation is ridiculous. Fix it, please!

  • yorkshiresprite Sprite (@yorkshiresprite) reported

    @Outlook Has the hotmail spam filter broken? Everything seems to be making into my inbox over the past couple of days... nothing is being filtered.

  • RubySuperwoman Ruby B. Jones (@RubySuperwoman) reported

    @jackteagle @Outlook Same here. I usually get like 50 junk mail per day. Getting notifications per each of them is ridiculous... hope they fix that **** soon.

  • morbital morbital 🇺🇦 (@morbital) reported

    @Outlook even though my settings state to only allow senders from my safe senders to end up in my inbox I'm getting 100s of junk mail items right now to my inbox instead of going to junk. Why is outlook soooooo broken? Why do I pay for this junk? Use that Bing AI to filter junk!

  • markolwick Mark Olwick (@markolwick) reported

    Hey @Outlook your Junk Mail filter is broken. Getting bombarded.

  • alex_nz Alex Hardie (@alex_nz) reported

    @Outlook all junk mail coming to inbox overnight, and no way to fix it? Please fix! Or give us a timeline at least. Really unpleasant start to the week

  • ryderjj89 Joshua Ryder (@ryderjj89) reported

  • AkibaJack Akiba Jack (@AkibaJack) reported

  • FatalPuls3 FatalPuls3 (@FatalPuls3) reported

    @theIngleSmarts @Outlook This is an almost monthly problem and I am getting pretty tired of it. Its like the spam filters on the MSFT end just get turned off for no fkn reason

  • lemon_drops Jess (@lemon_drops) reported

    @Outlook what’s happening with your spam filters? Since 6am GMT today all my junk has gone straight into my inbox. Have used these filters for over 15 years with no problems, what’s changed?? Please change it back, I’m drowning in spam! 🙈

  • ryderjj89 Joshua Ryder (@ryderjj89) reported

    @zacbowden Yeah my accounts are set to safe senders only and that appears to be broken right now. Everything that would be going to spam is in my inbox now. Smh. Get it together @Outlook

  • SarahCathCollin Sarah Collins (@SarahCathCollin) reported

    Hey @Outlook, you had cause me to go into notification hell this morning. All the email in my Junk Mail folder is now going to my Inbox. It is bypassing my Safe Sender list, which has been set up for years. Please fix so I can turn back on my notifications for Outlook.

  • JoffCallaghan Joff Callaghan (@JoffCallaghan) reported

    It appears that the junk mail filter on @Outlook has stopped working. Which is fun. Maybe they can get whoever trained that AI to have feelings to come over and fix it. Or just have the AI fix it (I didn't read the articles about it ngl, it could actually be alive for all I know)

  • JodyC1978 Jody C (@JodyC1978) reported

    @Outlook so today all the emails that usually go to my junk, and are in fact junk, are going to my inbox and it's making my phone go off every few minutes with new junk emails being delivered to the inbox. Just started last night. How can I fix this?
