In the past few days, I've noticed if I tick emails in the Junk folder to "Report Phishing", they no longer go to the deleted folder. They disappear momentarily and I get the "nothing in junk icon, etc. but, if I go to the inbox and back to the Junk folder, those emails are still there in the Junk folder.

    Issue still persists for me on outlook.com this morning

    It simply stopped working a couple of days ago

    12/04/2024: issue still persists!

    think at this point we can guess microsoft probably fired the team who manages this to make more $$$ and no one noticed this issue

    this is like the minecraft issues that lasted a week where we could not access the realm we pay for every month (never got a refund by the way)

    micro$oft has become the next ibm, they only care about business and governement

    i am slowly moving everything out of their ecosystem as their products are simply not good anymore, or just not reliable

    its a sad to see what microsoft has become since the new management took over, they make money that they do but thats about it...

    Same issue for me started a couple days ago. No way all of us are having the same issue do to any settings on our individual computers. Microsoft has changed something and now they need to change it back.

    I had a "non-phishing" junk email from a trusted source today end up in the junk folder, marked it as phishing, and it still refused to be transferred to the trash. So its not the scammers doing something to their emails, its something with Outlook.

    But now I have to correct what I wrote earlier. If I trash phishing emails from my junk folder, now they are going directly to my "recover" folder where I can not mark them as phishing.. So I have to move them to the trash manually and then mark them as phishing, at which point they now end up right back in my junk folder and I have to move to trash one more time. So Microsoft has actually made the situation worse and its now a complete pain to go through the effort to report emails as phishing..
