Microsoft Outlook users complain about spam filter not working

Microsoft Outlook seems to have problems with its spam filter since Sunday night. Users complain on social media that the filter no longer stops anything and that emails that previously went to the spam folder now appear in the inbox.

On GoT and Reddit users complain that their mails are no longer blocked by the spam filter, but instead appear directly in the inbox. Many users say they have been experiencing this since Monday, although some indicate that they have had problems with Outlook’s spam filter for longer.

It’s not clear why Outlook’s spam filter suddenly has trouble filtering spam. The company has not publicly commented on this yet. It is also not clear whether the problem occurs worldwide or not.
