    A while back I had a reservation with a hotel on Booking and I received a phish attempt that came directly via the Booking site domain email and also DMs but "sent" by the hotel. When I looked into it at the time, it seemed less like an issue of hotels specifically having their accounts infiltrated and more like some kind of message/email endpoint on Booking's end was being abused in a similar manner.

    I'm not sure this is the same type of issue but found this interesting, especially since apparently it's been reported to MS and no action has been taken.

    Is something similar happening with paypal? I've been getting seemly emails from the PayPal domain that are obviously a scam.

    How does it work when a genuine microsoft domain is spending out spam?

    Do other email providers penalize that specific domain only, or all microsoft domains to a tiny degree?

      The domain is Microsoftonline.com

      Typically it's a mis-placed feature. Something like "send an email alert when a thing happens" and they let you control what goes in the message body as well as who the message should be sent towards. Sounds reasonable on the surface, but without guardrails it lets folks send arbitrary emails from your domain.
