@Outlook Did something go wrong with outlook? I'm getting a huge amount of junk mail in my inbox for days now instead of the junk mail folder. It's extremely irritating to have 30 junk mail littering inbox. How have you not solved this issue after so many years?

@Outlook @CorrinneStanley Instead of asking people to send DM’s why don’t you fix the issue? My account is practically unusable due to the amount of junk that is now being delivered and I know I’m not the only one given your community pages. BTW, telling people it’s their ‘settings’ is also not helpful.

@zacbowden Getting the same. I reported in Feedback. Started this year, but seems to get worse everyday. @Microsoft @Outlook needs to look in to it quick. It makes the service feel broken and unsafe.

@Outlook @marcjacobs88 This isn't a one off. Where is the pinned post acknowledging there is an issue and what you are doing to address it rather than going to individuals asking them to DM?

@SarahCathCollin @Outlook I had to search on Twitter to see if anyone else is having the same issue, and it looks like I'm not the only one. Hopefully they fix this soon before I permanently delete my account.

Is there a fix @Outlook or at least a comment to the spam issue please. I can only junk/report so many before doing this becomes my full time job. #hotmail

@Outlook Why not put out a statement ACKNOWLEDGING this widespread Junk Mail issue instead of having 1000's of customers "DM" the support teams??

@Outlook when is the spam issue going to be fixed, my inbox is wild. Don’t request a DM, I have already tried and the messages are not sending to you. Thanks I also think a wider acknowledgment would be helpful with a wider plan to fix as this seems like a holistic issue. thx

Hey @Outlook the junk mail feature IS NOT WORKING. Fix this it’s bad enough that I receive far to much junk mail but for you not to have an essential feature - WORKING CONSTANTLY for a better experience is insane.
