Hi, I had my hotmail account for over 20 years and I never had an issue like this. As of this morning at 4am ALL of my junk emails are going to my inbox. No settings have been amended.
Since I've had this account for many years every 5 minutes I receive a junk in my inbox. Ive searched for a solution online but all I can see is for outlook and not outlook/hotmail 365. I've tried everything at this point, from rules to flagging wit no help. Has anyone experienced the same? Microsoft doesnt seem to have a customer service team to help?
Many thanks

I am having the same exact problem. Started this morning 2/20/23. 100 emails that would normally be junk are in my inbox. If you find out what the problem is please let me know!
Hey everybody......start reporting all of these junk emails as Junk or Phishing.
I wonder what this will do to their servers?
Might wake them up and result in action.
I have had exactly the same problem today. I have changed no settings whatsoever yet suddenly all the emails that should be going into my junk email are appearing in my inbox. I have very strict settings regarding the emails that should go into my inbox and it's very frustrating!
Yep same I think I have had my email for 24 years. Seems odd that it’s happening all of the sudden like this. I may change my password just to make sure I’m not getting hacked. We will see how that goes.
This is not the problem.
