  • yahoo201027 Martinez Julian 🌹🌻 | #AnimationIsForEveryone (@yahoo201027) reported

    Can the people over at @Outlook @Windows fix the issue with the spam messages? Because I can't be the only one who had to deal with junk mail being sent to the main section and NOT where it should it belong where all junk mail is at? This has to be fixed.

  • SXMRob R Vail (@SXMRob) reported

    @Outlook your spam filters are not working. Please fix. I used to get hardly any. Now it’s 5-10 per hour. Please get someone on this.

  • SoulflareG Dale (@SoulflareG) reported

    @Bunnyman1400_ @JimDavisMTG @Outlook This is what I did for my dad when he didn't want to swap. Forward everything. Update to the new email as is convenient (aka I am on the page might as well do it) And boom problem solved

  • xavier22 Xavier Tee (@xavier22) reported

    @Outlook Hi, I have an issue. I’m using Office for Mac on O365. My mailbox has over 20k emails. But when switched over to New Outlook, it only has emails from a few weeks ago. I need to keep scrolling down to load older emails. Is this a common issue?

  • GY1Matt Matt (@GY1Matt) reported

    Good morning @Outlook Still burying your head in the sand over this issue? Appalling so-called customer service from you.

  • GAPOfAmerica Great American Podcast (@GAPOfAmerica) reported

    The truth about @Microsoft is that when the customer brings an issue to you, regarding the @Outlook app. Wether it’s desktop or mobile, the issue is that YOUR Spam/Scam Filter is officially “broken”. You have not fixed this in 3 weeks. FIX IT. You have the tools to do so!

    Still ignoring this issue of providing false information @Outlook? What a shambles of an organisation you truly are. I'll begin shifting all my e-mails to a non-Outlook account over the weekend & cease using your service.

  • Bhardwaj96Hp harish (@Bhardwaj96Hp) reported

    Anyone know how to easily find which accounts are linked to a certain email address? I need to close one down I have as @Outlook seem to fail at stopping phishing emails. 76 this week. Absolutely doing my head in

  • CA_22562_AN T:HE:JAMES. HMRH (@CA_22562_AN) reported

    @Outlook Outlook problems? Won't load. Screenfull of error messages. Why update? Firefox 100.0.2 (64-bit) on Fedora 34

  • futileboy Ryan Lane (@futileboy) reported

    I'm not sure how to fix the @Outlook meeting notification problem when you have multiple desktops, but it seems like there must be a better way.

  • MsDiamondPearl Diamond Pearl (@MsDiamondPearl) reported

    @Dice_Guy @Outlook I was wondering! It’s insane how much crap I’m getting, and I can’t turn off notifications as it’s my business email… @Outlook please fix this!

  • ShaunJay Shaun Jayachandran (@ShaunJay) reported

    Would love a product build for @gmail and @Outlook that went through your orgs directory and automatically added names to the dictionary. There’s zero reason names in an org should be showing up as errors with recommendations for other words.

  • rachelabachel rachel the bachel 🌿🌵🪴🌱 (@rachelabachel) reported

    Outlook is terrible @Microsoft @Outlook you should be ashamed

  • calumtomeny calum.eth 🦇🔊 (@calumtomeny) reported
