    @round @Outlook Me, too. Didn't start by choice but I had a Mail issue and now I wouldn't even think of switching back ;)

  • sophiejfhall sophiejfhall (@sophiejfhall) reported

    @Outlook I would LOVE to see unsolicitated junk mail in my inbox magically disappear and never come back. I would love for you to respond to emails sent to about this issue - that would be magic.

  • DavidTaggart David Taggart-PDMacro.com (@DavidTaggart) reported

    Hey @Microsoft how are the @Outlook filter rules sooooo terrible? If i mark an email and a sending domain as not spam, and to never block it, then please stop sending it to spam. Your spam filters are so bad I consider the spam folder just an extension of my inbox

  • stryder989 Pat Wilson (@stryder989) reported

    @Outlook I hate that goddamn "trick" ad that looks like an email at the top of my email list. accidentally click on it all the time. didn't used to be there. terrible idea.

    @Outlook Hi there, I tried clicking the button to Send you a DM, however, on my end, when I send my DM, it results as a red error. :( But yes I am still experiencing the issue with your Apps.

  • DarthB86 Tim Janus (@DarthB86) reported

    @Outlook since when do you assume email address equal to login name and do not give an option to provide a login name when setting up an E-Mail? Am I missing something or is this the Windows 11 experience?

  • TimPendry Tim Pendry (@TimPendry) reported

    More problems with @Outlook sending this evening ... what a bunch of cowboys!

  • GrappleGuru Grapple Guru (@GrappleGuru) reported

    I wanna keep using @Microsoft @Outlook email instead of Gmail, but there are days when I'm almost fed up with its terrible junk mail filter. Legitimate emails from friends getting buried by several spam emails.

  • TPPRNews TPPR (@TPPRNews) reported

    @Outlook It seems it was another one of your increasingly disruptive Updates ... once it went through, the problem solved itself on the work PC. I'll see about he domestic PC later.

  • beejal1mehta Beejal Mehta (@beejal1mehta) reported
