Yes, it seems that you are not the only one experiencing this issue. There are a few reports of Bitdefender Total Security Antispam not delivering personal emails on the Bitdefender Community forum.

One possible explanation for this issue is that Bitdefender Antispam is configured to block emails from the same sender and recipient. This is a common spam prevention technique, but it can also block legitimate emails if the sender and recipient are the same.

To check if this is the case, you can open Bitdefender Total Security and go to Protection > Antispam. In the Settings tab, look for the option that says Block emails from the same sender and recipient. If this option is enabled, disable it and see if your personal emails start to deliver to your Outlook inbox.

If disabling this option does not resolve the issue, you can try the following steps:

1) Add your personal email account to the Safe Senders list in Bitdefender Antispam.

2) Create a rule in Outlook to prevent Bitdefender Antispam from scanning your personal email account.
