@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!

Hi @Outlook please can you fix your spam filter? My junk filter was set to exclusive and was working fine for years until it broke at around 0600 GMT this morning. Since then every email going into inbox.

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)

@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?
