  @Outlook there is definitely a global issue with your spam filters today! I’m being bombarded and there are no auto-filtering options available. What is happening!?

  @Outlook FIX YOUR ******* SPAM FILTERS

• Houman (@houman_ag) reported 8 minutes ago

  @Outlook I know you've got enough crap from people today so you'd think I'd cut you slack but I won't. You deserve the crap because of how terrible your spam filtering is. Today I actually had to double check my folder to confirm if I was really looking at inbox #email #spam

• MiMeQu (@MiMeQu) reported 8 minutes ago

  @Outlook Fix your app. Since the update three days ago, all my junk mail is now going straight to my inbox.

  @Microsoft @Outlook when are you fixing the junk mail issue? And why does this keep happening? #fixJunkMail

  Dear @Outlook please fix the spam filter because apparently today I’m getting all of spam emails in my inbox instead of the spam folder.

  @Outlook PLEASE FIX THIS SPAM EMAIL PROBLEM YOU GUYS HAVE. IM BLOCKING ALMOST 30 SENDERS A DAY, EVERY WEEK. WHAT THE HELL?

• Pixel Pursuit (@PixelPursuitRob) reported 23 minutes ago

  @SirCrackerBulb @Outlook I've just recently been going through the same exact thing but it's on my personal email address which isn't even public. Something must be going on with Outlook that they need to fix I guess...

• Sam (@_samdeane) reported 26 minutes ago

  @_Flinty @Outlook It really is. Not a single message has gone directly to junk today. Looking online it seems like there is an issue open but nothing official

• Shawn (@spfarrelltweets) reported 27 minutes ago

  Anyone else who's still holding onto their Hotmail account (since 1997, baby), noticing an overwhelming amount of spam making it through to your inbox lately? What's up @Outlook? Is something broken?

• S (@sophl1227) reported 30 minutes ago

  @Microsoft any chance you can acknowledge a problem with your @Outlook junk filtering today?

• Reef ➐ (@Reef215) reported 31 minutes ago

  @Outlook Spam filtering is not working on one of my accounts. Please Fix ASAP
