are you sure you're using the new outlook.com account and not an old hotmail/live one? if you have a password manager with autologin you might have gotten signed into a wrong account
I am not even certain I know my Hotmail password: I have not logged into that account in many years, and certainly not from my iPhone (which is where I just created that account).
Yeah, verified: here is a copy/paste from the message.
From: Hotmail Team <member_services@live.com>
To: <saurik@outlook.com>
