Steven P. Administrators Posted September 17, 2013 Administrators Share Posted September 17, 2013 Why does this happen? Calendar events and a bunch of emails from Windows Developer network (and TechNet) were all fished out of the Outlook.com or Mail app spam folders. The emails even end in microsoft.com do they flag their own email for spam or have I done something wrong somewhere lol? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manroweb Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 Gmail does similar with my TechNet emails. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven P. Administrators Posted September 17, 2013 Author Administrators Share Posted September 17, 2013 btw I should probably mention that the email address they were sent to is a hotmail.com one, which makes it even stranger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kami- Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 btw I should probably mention that the email address they were sent to is a hotmail.com one, which makes it even stranger. Check email headers to ensure they are actually from Microsoft... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
articuno1au Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 They are. Check to make sure you haven't blacklisted the domain name or anything like that. I had to manually allow the emails to let them through. At least MS aren't biased about spam >.< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

francescob Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 I just checked my gmail spam folder as well and apparently I had won the "Microsoft Corporations lottery", but now it's too late to deposit the few thousands dollars needed to reclaim the price. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
