I am NOT receiving any Emails, I've been also trying to receive emails sending them from other emails of mine and I am not receiving nothing on my Inbox, not even on the Spam or Junk folder?

For Outlook.com, check these common causes in this order:

  1. Check whether mailbox or Microsoft cloud storage is full. If storage is full, mail sent during that time is bounced back to the sender and is unrecoverable.
  2. In Outlook.com, check Other, Junk Email, Deleted Items, Archive, and any custom folders.
  3. Check Filter > Sort > Date to make sure messages are not just appearing out of order.
  4. Check whether email forwarding is enabled.
  5. Check whether any email rules are moving or hiding messages.
  6. If the missing mail is from specific senders, ask those senders whether they received a non-delivery report.
  7. If a sender confirms the message was sent but nothing appears in Inbox or Junk, the message may have been blocked before it reached the mailbox.

If mail is missing from the web inbox itself, also check the Junk Email folder and mark any valid message as Not junk.

    Yes I found them on the deleted emails, why they went automatically to the deleted folder?
