@Outlook I know you've got enough crap from people today so you'd think I'd cut you slack but I won't. You deserve the crap because of how terrible your spam filtering is. Today I actually had to double check my folder to confirm if I was really looking at inbox #email #spam

@SirCrackerBulb @Outlook I've just recently been going through the same exact thing but it's on my personal email address which isn't even public. Something must be going on with Outlook that they need to fix I guess...
