    @Outlook can you fix your spam filters. I keep marking emails as junk but seems your ML retraining and spam categorisation models are outdated. I'm half considering shifting my main account and using @gmail

    @Outlook I am having a technical issue with my personal account. It is being incorrectly flagged as a child account. When I try to verify my age by clicking 'I am a parent', I immediately get a 'Logout Failed' error page on all devices and browsers.

    @Outlook If there is a prize for damaging a perfectly working app with a new version much worse than before, you stand in the first place as a contender. Many useful features are gone. New version is slow & unfriendly. I can't go back as it can't connect to my Google A/C !

    I’ve had awful luck with @outlook the past week. Every time I log in, I get told there have been too many failed attempts and I’m forced to reset my password. It makes the website feel very insecure, a major security issue.

    @Outlook @MicrosoftHelps Hi Microsoft/Outlook team, I recently created a Microsoft account and got an @outlook.com email by default. But every email I send to Gmail addresses lands in the recipient's Spam folder, so they never see it. This is causing major inconvenience— Fix this
