Getting bombarded by "Paypal" <somethingsomething@something.onmicrosoft.com> spam for months and Microsoft (outlook) can't handle that. This is beyond their level.
For anyone still fortunately-unfamilier: Microsoft has some supposedly limited-purpose e-mail notifications and invites which are quasi-legitimate... but they failed on the UX level, allowing spammers to pack seemingly-innocent fields like Organization Name with content that becomes the (apparent) main content of the e-mail.
Yeah; imagine getting not junk...actual PayPal phishing emails, daily, multiple, from onmicrosoft.com (owned by Microsoft), in Outlook (owned by Microsoft), and report phishing does nothing.
The root domain onmicrosoft.com is owned and managed by Microsoft Corporation, which uses it as the default domain for Microsoft 365 and Azure cloud environments
imagine that these people have most money in the world. Bill Gates (owns MS). Elon Musk (owns / owned PayPal). Now stop wondering why and start using other services.
Parent-poster wasn't lamenting monopolies, they were just incredulous that some supposedly well-resourced and integrated company still can't get its act together to stop a well-understood problem.

That seems like a non-sequitur.
