    hey @Outlook your web client's new auto-complete function is TERRIBLE! it makes it nearly impossible to do something basic like, y'know, type an email. Please add a disable button, I don't want to have to go to Gmail.

    Hey @Microsoft @Outlook, just so you know, I decided to try deleting the account from my iPad and iPhone. I deleted, but y’all won’t let me reinstall. Seriously, what is your problem?

  • AdamProbolsky Adam Probolsky (@AdamProbolsky) reported

    .@Microsoft broke @Outlook in the last few days. It is comical (if you are not in the middle of a crisis) to watch how they are scrambling to help people - to no avail - to fix it. I am a fan of Microsoft native desktop apps. But I am working hard to find alternative solutions.

  • ohai_jamie meta jamie (@ohai_jamie) reported

    hi @Outlook can you please fix the bug where, when you're typing an email, it randomly decides you're hitting keyboard shortcuts and archives or deletes your draft? 😒

  • JVATaxnLaw Jennifer V. Abelaj (@JVATaxnLaw) reported from Manhattan, New York

  • k2krish Krishna Kumar Gupta (@k2krish) reported

    Any one @SharePoint that can fix the ability to directly drag an email from @Outlook to a folder in Sharepoint without first dragging it to a hardrive? Thanks. It is 2021 not 1991. I will send the bill for the fix. Thank God you don't build airplanes or diapers.
