(I really hate the way that Microsoft keep using the same name for entirely different things. It can lead to a lot of confusion!). The problem you're experiencing doesn't seem to be one that Microsoft is currently aware of, other than for users of Firefox with certain extensions:

All I can suggest until they fix the problem is to try using a decent email client (such as Thunderbird), rather than using the Outlook.com website. [Webmail is only ever a 'second best' way to use email anyway]. At least then you won't miss any important incoming mail.
