Your Outlook.com inbox may be silently missing emails since Nov 5

Some Outlook.com and Hotmail users aren’t receiving emails because messages sent to them are bouncing, with senders being told their emails failed an authentication check. I’ve personally observed this behavior when a business struggled to reach me because its emails bounced. I’m told that senders get an error saying their email failed an SPF check.
I thought it was just me, but when I glanced over Microsoft’s forums and Reddit, I noticed that other people were also having issues receiving emails on Outlook.com and Hotmail.

Your Outlook.com inbox may be silently missing emails since Nov 5, and even senders with valid settings are getting blocked

If only it could stop all those spam emails I get on a daily basis, instead of the legit ones that I want

Yea, for 20 years I've had the odd couple now and then. The last month, I've had about 20 a day

I usually get over 60 between going to bed and waking up then another 40 or 50 during the day. One day a few weeks back I got 160 overnight, with lots more through the day, they go straight into my junk box but I have to check before I delete them all in case there is the occasional genuine one mixed in with the spam.

It is getting so bad that I am thinking of ditching the email that I have had for over 25 years and starting afresh.
