    @Outlook Hello, wanted to ask, is there any recommended action for handling an issue I've had using the online version with a Safari browser where messages "can't be sent right now"? Seems like this has increased in prevalence in the last month on my accounts. Thanks!

  • Suzz101 Aradia- Suzzannee144 (@Suzz101) reported

    @Outlook I deleted the account yesterday and uninstalled Outlook, but the hacker is still sending emails from my account doing the same thing. Today this message from a friend:Your email address is still emailing people and asking for money! How to fix this?!

  • BovineFarts Bovine Farts (@BovineFarts) reported

    @Outlook I’m trying to sign in to an old email. It said the account is blocked due to too many sign in attempts. I followed the instructions and changed the password but it is still blocked.

  • Lidz_129 Lidz (@Lidz_129) reported

    Hi @Outlook, I have a work e-mail and a uni e-mail. When I log out of one and try to access the other, outlook forces me to sign in to the one I’d previously accessed. It’s super frustrating! How can I avoid this happening?

  • DJ_Byrd DJ Byrd (@DJ_Byrd) reported

    @argylsa @Outlook same issue since late last week and can find no fix for it

  • sharnawatson201 sharnawatson2020 (@sharnawatson201) reported

    @Outlook is there an outage i can’t receive or send emails

  • Steel_City14 Lou R (@Steel_City14) reported

    @Outlook is one of the WORST email apps in the play store! CONSTANTLY freezes, brings back deleted emails after freezing, etc. It's been a HUGE pile of crap the last several weeks. Message lists are blank when opening too.... Hey @Microsoft, fix your app!!!

  • AllxHailxKenny #PRE | Kenny (@AllxHailxKenny) reported from Sullivan, Missouri

    @Outlook really needs to get with me on this issue for real. Over this!

  • jtoro J Toro (@jtoro) reported

    @Outlook @Meeshell_ART You've done similar thing to my Hotmail access and simply asking us to follow instructions elsewhere that do not resolve our issues nor fix the root cause is not productive nor a positive @Microsoft experience

  • CarrotTop1023 Tim Appleby (@CarrotTop1023) reported

    @Outlook Nevermind, I resolved my own issue, I had to sign out and sign in again, fixed my issue.

  • PorcupineButler PorcupineButler (@PorcupineButler) reported

  • bonobochick Miss D. 📚 🎀 📺 🎬 (@bonobochick) reported

    @Outlook There seems to be login and syncing issues with the android app. When will issues be resolved?

  • CraigStrathie Craig Strathie (@CraigStrathie) reported

    I’m sorry but @Outlook is an absolute joke. Went to update my number as it’s old because my grandparents have (still ongoing) issues getting into their account. Says it will take 30 days to update (that’s fair enough) however it then goes on asking to verifying my account...

  • ericc Eric Cloninger (@ericc) reported

    Oh look, I destroyed all my @Outlook rules trying to fix a couple that were client-side instead of server-side. Backups? What backups?

  • jlibion Jérémy Libion (@jlibion) reported

    @Outlook many Outlook app still not working from 8h ago and no sign of tweet about this from you? Do you not know many worker losses precious time because of this outage?

  • jfahler Joshua Fahler (@jfahler) reported

    @MatthewJBusch Even worse when it is set by default in the web version of @Outlook (at least on the server/version our school uses - my university has a different web version that we should probably switch over to soon)

  • thatgirlNajuma Najmalie (@thatgirlNajuma) reported

    Can @Outlook please fix their app?! Every other day my app stops synching. I've restarted it, deleted my account and nothing. I deleted the app the other day and it took days for me to log back in. It's getting annoying now.

  • Mattkparsons Matt (@Mattkparsons) reported

    @Microsoft can you guys fix the @Android problem with @Outlook sending pictures inline rather than attachments? You guys are going to see much more downloads once you do.

  • Vikas_Salve Vikas Dilip Salve (@Vikas_Salve) reported

    @Outlook #inbox #Rule is not working at all :-(
