What happens when someone "Report Phishing" and "Report Message" an email as Phish/Spam in Outlook client? Does EOP & EOP policy blocks them or what actions it takes on those emails?

    Defender evaluates those user submissions and renders a verdict. If its determined it was phishing, they will be blocked. If the message is submitted as junk, they will be handled as per the anti-spam policy for that user.
