    @Outlook Now that @Microsoft is laying off 10,000 people, does this mean that the junk email problem will get better? Who am I fooling? They have never sincerely made an effort to easily fix this problem. If I get 10 emails, I'll also get 25 junk emails. Every day. 10x a day.

    Hey @Outlook Has there been a database issue/roll back? Couple of days ago I spent lots of time creating new folders, and organising emails into those folders while deleting others. Today, all of that work has been completely reversed, folders gone! And all deleted mail back!?!

  • AllenM_30 Allen M (@AllenM_30) reported

    @Outlook can you get your app to open quicker??!! The delay with the envelope opening 4-5 times is slow & irritating. If you open other tabs (EdgeorChrome) while waiting when you go back, tab for Outlook hasn't opened the app, starts the envelope opening again. May chg to gmail
