    @MicrosoftHelps do you ever plan on fixing and improving the fact that the filters and rule settings in @outlook (legacy hotmail )website version do NOT work. Time to fix it. Dont act like you dont know. You know. Just fix it. #Microsoft #outlook

  • ultragrrl Hopeful J 😷 💉 (@ultragrrl) reported

    I set up a delayed send for my Outlook outbox. It’s been great so I can catch any mistakes. Problem is I cannot set a timer for a full Send so the messages sit in it. I’ve read the product support pages. I’ve tried multiple settings and nothing works. This can be bad. @Outlook?

  • DJ_Byrd DJ Byrd (@DJ_Byrd) reported

    @argylsa @diegoloayza @Outlook And still no fix

  • RossSmithIV Ross Smith IV (@RossSmithIV) reported

    @magrom @Outlook I am not seeing issues with contact search within the app. What is the scenario? Also, can you explain what is wrong with contact export? New contacts aren’t getting synced? Changes?

  • DonNuzzi Don N (@DonNuzzi) reported

    @Outlook why are your spam filters so terrible???

  • JasmineCie James Naismith stan account (@JasmineCie) reported

    I really need @Outlook to get a “snooze message” functionality....if it already exists, I need it in that right-click drop down. NEED NEED NEED!

  • XRayAdams Konstantin Adamov (@XRayAdams) reported

    @Microsoft365 @Outlook Still not good. You did not fix annoying problem. Weh you have outlook minimized (CMD+W) and you click on notification. Email will be opened, but so Outlook and outlook will cover opened email so you have to switch window (CMD+`). This is annoying as hell

  • orchid8 Sarah Vela (@orchid8) reported

    @LPVhouse @MicrosoftTeams @Outlook also, the GIFs are terrible.

  • 17trish71 Miss Trish (@17trish71) reported

  • iam_hameedvr Hameed (@iam_hameedvr) reported

    @MicrosoftHelps Your product need to test again by the QA team otherwise this issue will happen to other one definitely ! For your information, with that form no one can retrive their account Totally waste of time! @Outlook

  • GreatNorthSnark GreatNorthernSnark (@GreatNorthSnark) reported

    @Outlook -- was on leave for a month, came back to O365 with a full inbox. I've been deleting for HOURS, and made less than a GB of progress; everything else on Earth can delete lickety-split, why does your product have trouble with this simple task? @Microsoft #waiting #tech

  • kurt765 Wear A Mask. Get the vaccine. (@kurt765) reported

    If I have two windows open for @Outlook - one each on different computers - it sure would be nice for things I do on the one computer to push over to the other. Google has no problem with this. I have to reload the browser window for Outlook to know anything has happened.

  • AkatukundaIsaac Akatukunda Isaac (@AkatukundaIsaac) reported

    @Outlook is currently OFF whats the issue

  • magrom Martina Grom ☁️ #rdsummit (@magrom) reported

    @RossSmithIV @Outlook scenario: search in app brings not all contacts. sync to native contact app is broken. but if Outlook apps works for everyone else, we will look to go through support.

  • alonbrown Alon Brown (@alonbrown) reported

    @Marcel_Swart @Outlook Do they then disappear on the phone? Still trying to see if the deletes are failing to sync up to the server, if they're not getting synced back down to the phone in the background, etc. If you're not sure, might be best to see if they're visible in Outlook on the web.

  • LiamBCreative Liam Banks (@LiamBCreative) reported

    @Outlook I am having trouble trying to unlock my mums email account with you - we no longer have the phone number listed for verification and the online verification tool is just coming back as unsuccessful - we have been locked out for 3 days now

  • cymumtaz C. Yusuf Mumtaz (@cymumtaz) reported

    Why doesn't @outlook on Android work with IMAP accounts? I can't compose without errors, drafts don't sync, and I'm worried emails don't actually get sent.
