@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 @marcjacobs88 Not being funny but this is a problem for many on here today, instead of answering individually….how a about a tweet to the masses of why this is happening.

@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.

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.

@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?

@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?
