Why hasn't @Outlook commented on its broken spam filters? Knowing that they're working toward a resolution would put a lot of users at ease.

If I couldn't hate the @Outlook mobile app anymore, sometime overnight while I slept ALL of my incoming junk mail started delivering to my main inbox. And I can't find any setting to fix it.

@Outlook Your spam filter is broken. I'm getting continuous spam in my inbox. This has been going on for a couple of days. Please fix it. I don't want to have to open an account with a different provider but this is getting ridiculous.

@Outlook for months I've had issues with junk mail in my inbox. Before it was great. I hardly, if ever, saw junk in it. I woke up to 40 junk messages in my inbox. It's been bad for me for months, but never this bad. Ugh

@SarahCathCollin @Outlook It may not be a coincidence that it happened on a U.S. holiday. @Outlook may have had a planned update that broke. Over the years I have noticed Outlook issues on holidays. For all we know, it could be a hack.
