  • ivanzlatev Ivan Zlatev (@ivanzlatev) reported

    . @Outlook @Office365 You should really fix the syncing of "subscribe from web" calendars. It's simply not acceptable in this day and age that it takes multiple hours for changes to come through and often it just stops syncing entirely...

    Hey @Outlook @Microsoft @Microsoft365 are there plans to fix Outlook so users can send calendar invites privately? My office have said we can't use Resources now as a workaround & we have a worse work around. Also, is 'Resources' use risky? Our Risk & IT said it's 'unsafe'. Thx

    @Outlook It still is not working, you keep saying my Gmail alternative is correct but still I am unable to receive the code. I have checked in all email boxes

  • huzefamotiwala Huzefa (フゼファ) (@huzefamotiwala) reported

    @gmail The problem is not with my Gmail account. I can access it from the web and mobile. The problem: There is more-than-actual line spacing in between paragraphs when mail is sent from @Outlook on #web and viewed in the #Gmail app.

  • spamresource Al Iverson's Spam Resource (@spamresource) reported

    @KentMcGovern @Outlook We got that a few times too. They must think we're saying we just took over an IP block, which wasn't the case. I think we argued them down from that. So annoying!

    @Outlook Just started a new email account with you. Being told I need to verify, but the verification key won’t load. So now I can’t send emails?! How do I fix this. Also, been waiting over an hour to chat with an agent about this.

  • shridharfly Shridhar R Kulkarni (@shridharfly) reported

    @Outlook Does it count if I have received 1 auto reply mail? It reads "I'm not available, trouble my boss instead".

  • melvin__david Melvin David (@melvin__david) reported
