Both my wife and I have Outlook.com accounts that receive mail that is automatically forwarded from another mailbox. We use differenet email providers but both of us find that there are some mails, maybe 1 in 100, that simply do not arrive in Outlook.com.
I have tested this by setting forwarders to both Outlook and a Gmail address and by checking the mails have arrived on the webmail of the email providers. Mails arrive OK at the provider, get forwarded OK to Gmail, can be accessed by Outlook on the desktop
using POP direct to the provider, but do not arrive in the Outlook.com mailbox.
They are emphatically not in junk mail, there are no blocked senders, and there are no rules that are diverting them. They just do not arrive. I have one contact whose mails seem to repeatedly go missing but when I asked him to do a test mail sent to both
my mail and my wife's - it arrived in my wife's Outlook.com but not mine! Its all very strange and a bit disturbing.
It seems to me that others complain of this problem. Is it being investigated?
Regards
Ian
