All hotmail / outlook Junk mail coming to inbox ?

Despite these emails still saying they are classed as junk. This has suddenly started today.

I've cleared my cache and deleted all in junk box.

Can't find any settings in junk mail other than safe senders list .

Thanks, Darren

    Hi,

    I am facing the same problem unfortunately. I have been receiving spam to my inbox for quite a while and have been reporting the emails and blocking the sender. In the last few days it has rapidly increased in frequency. For instance, in the last hour I have received 15 spam emails to my inbox. It is beginning to become quite frustrating. Is there anything I can do to stop this from happening?

    Many thanks

    All my email started going to regular inbox on my outlook acct this morning after 3 am. I've had this account for over 20 yrs. First time this has happened to me too.

    The server problem must be with Microsoft/hotmail/outlook

    Junk mail coming into my inbox, same as you, had this hotmail account for many years and this is the first time it does this.

    Is it helpful to delete cookies?

    Hello dazzas, My name is Sajjad and I will be assisting you.

    I understand your concern and multiple users are reporting that they are receiving more junk emails now. I believe it's something from the server side that is not working properly. In the meantime, I would suggest checking the articles below to help protect your Outlook, change the level of protection, and reduce spam emails:
