@MicrosoftHelps Can you get the @Outlook team to put out a statement so it would aliviate confusion. Hotmail currently won't sync to any app. You have to view emails on browser. It may be an android issue, gmail app or yourselves. But acknowledging it would help. Thanks.

In the last 4 days I have been seeing increased levels of spam emails being delivered to my Inbox. Hotmail is no longer filtering these spam emails directly into the Junk folder. I go through 40-50 spam emails per day. What's the fix for this? @Outlook @MicrosoftHelps
