    Hi, @Outlook you locked me out of my e-mail account. Your self-help guides don't work, I can't sign in to message with an advisor and there are no advisors on the phone, just a robot who doesnt nothing but direct me back to the useless self-help online. Give me my account back

    @TechWTaylor @Outlook Mine started working again this morning. I’m able to send and receive emails again. Maybe the fix is a slow roll out.

    . @Outlook I am being told my account is locked out. I need to verify I’m a human with a press and hold button. I have tried this several times and it keeps saying try again. How do I fix this and is there an actual person to assist in getting me access to my emails again?

    @Outlook For2 I have been locked out of my emails, despite filling out forms many times over. I filled in all the details you asked for many times. I do NOT have a number you can text me on because I am using a different sim on vacation. So just fix it. This is terrible service

    @Outlook this update that sends everything to my Draft folders automatically is complete BS Please change this! It doesn’t save any time and causes way too many problems. The majority of people using outlook for work Multi task and end up having all these emails disappear. When it’s out of site it’s out of mind. That’s not a good thing.

    @awstar11 @Microsoft @Outlook Because deep down they know no one should use any of their products and they're subconsciously trying to drive users away? Best I got. If you figure it out let me know, been wondering this for decades.

    @Microsoft @Outlook I can post this screenshot into ANY AI and they will ALL come back and tell me this email is a scam, so shouldn't we expect the same from the @outlook mail filter? Please DO BETTER, why is this hard at least let us in on the technical issues as to why this is so hard!

    Hey @Outlook we use you for work and all my colleagues and I run into this very annoying bug where you will reply to someone, it stops the typing cursor as if you clicked away and when you press space it will archive the e-mail chain. Can you please fix ASAP? thanks.

    @Outlook like many people I've been logged out in my phone and can't log back in despite using the correct password. This problem has been an issue for a month now, what are you actually doing to fix it?
