Question

All hotmail / outlook Junk mail coming to inbox ?

Despite these emails still saying they are classed as junk. This has suddenly started today.

I've cleared my cache and deleted all in junk box.

Can't find any settings in junk mail other than safe senders list .

Thanks, Darren

Answer 1

In my Hotmail/Outlook.com I have it set to receive mail from Contact's only for many years and today it stopped working. Getting nearly 100+ phishing attempts per hour!

Microsoft at least acknowledge the issue.

@Sajjad747 your instructions are worthless! The issue is at the "server" end not the webmail client settings. Had you actually read the posts you might understand that.

Answer 2

All my email started going to regular inbox on my outlook acct this morning after 3 am. I've had this account for over 20 yrs. First time this has happened to me too.

The server problem must be with Microsoft/hotmail/outlook

Answer 3

Microsoft, Any ETA on resolution so that we know help is on the way and there is light at the end of the tunnel.

Thanks.

Answer 4

Same problem. Turned off new email notifications until this is fixed. Had over 100 junk mails get through. I would hate to switch all my accounts to my Gmail, but I will if it’s not fixed soon. What an pain!!

Answer 5

Hi,

I am facing the same problem unfortunately. I have been receiving spam to my inbox for quite a while and have been reporting the emails and blocking the sender. In the last few days it has rapidly increased in frequency. For instance, in the last hour I have received 15 spam emails to my inbox. It is beginning to become quite frustrating. Is there anything I can do to stop this from happening?

Many thanks
