Just started getting Russian women and male body part emails in my inbox. I used to have exclusive setting checked. Where in the heck did that go??? I see that in 2013 lots of people had issues with unwanted spam in their inboxes. They were told to set exclusive settting. I really wish Microsoft would quit pushing me to go to gmail!

Same thing here the last couple of days. Junk mail rule still set to exclusive yet a lot of junk coming to inbox. Bill Gates wants to sell you a service so he can donate your money to all his leftie causes.
Same thing is suddenly happening to me. Junk mail is now going to inbox
Both filters you mention are already (and have always been) check marked. Microsoft/Outlook support is
worthless when searching for an answer to address the problem.
I am getting slammed now with spam in my inbox! Ive made no setting changes . Yes some is going into junk but hardly everything . Very frustrating . Feels like an invasion .
Same here! It started yesterday. Very little is going to junk mail. Most comes into my inbox. SO frustrating!
Wow . Lots of great input pretty much all the same . I didn't want to use the hack word but i saw that come up so can that be an issue? This same email thing happened to me before - a year or 2 ago. At some point MS fixed the issue .its about time they start playing with their blocks! I agree this email tool is totally unusable .
