  @keeganlanier @Outlook I haven’t noticed it myself as I use Outlook on my iPad Pro with a M365 account. Are you connecting to Exchange server or another email provider such as Google or iCloud? I am thinking it could be a sync issue with IMAP or something along those lines.

  @Outlook My case involves MAILBOX CORRUPTION, not deletion. I need this escalated to the engineering team. Only they can restore internal server snapshots. The attack happened yesterday — there is still time.

  @Microsoft @Office @Outlook Why does Outlook for Mac always have non-stop issues? Why is my desktop app unable to Sync or connect for hours, sometimes even the entire day, multiple times per month? There's some MAJOR issues inside Outlook for Mac OS and it's not just mine.
