    @Outlook If you're typing an email and one/several of your 50 rules setup to process the endless azure & teams spam fires, it takes the focus away from what you're typing, and contributes to the insanity of humanity. Please fix. PS - all your auto support tools are intolerable

    Please guys help me retweet this. I can't receive new emails in my @Outlook email. That means I can't send cryptos to any exchange or wallet 😭😭. I don't know what the problem is. I reached out to @Outlook but they're not replying back.

    @Outlook you guys having Android app issues? Web mail working fine but app is constantly asking for my password and saying 'something went wrong'. Reinstalled, works for about 30mins and then the same issue starts again. Installed latest Android 12 update today, related?

    @TomJSeiple @Outlook Outlook is an odd example of differing UX based on your platform. I don't have a outlook app license (why is that a things) so I use the web version. Which has minimal parallels to the app. With today's dev options, that difference is a deliberate choice, not feasibility issue.

    @Outlook I got an email about an unusual sign in activity … but it went to my spam folder. It’s a legit email. Y’all should prolly fix that.

    What @MicrosoftHelps needs to do is fix the scam emails that keep coming to peoples focus inbox in the @Outlook app.

    @Outlook Hey Guys... I am having issues with my hotmail email that I have used for about 20 years. I have been going in circles with you customer support protocol online. I am two seconds away moving all my email to my gmail account at this point... I need assistance

    The macOS version of @Outlook does not allow users to set "weekdays" as a recurring meeting configuration. This is an issue. Nobody wants to meet on weekends by default.

    @Outlook hello I can't sign into my outlook account as it says the security info is still pending on the account it says it be updated on the 17.03.2022 but I've tried to login and not working

  • boltyboy
    Matthew Holt (@boltyboy) reported

    It's incredible that after 40+ years of being totally incompetent @Microsoft still can't make their @Outlook signin process understandable. Now it wants you to use its own 2FA which is broken & keeps telling me the account I just set up doesn't exist

  • drydryruins
    Andrew Thai Dang (@drydryruins) reported

    @MicrosoftAU @Outlook @Microsoft My email locked for no reason. I’m going to make a complaint here cause this is done in error and if you’re doing this to “protect” customers then why can’t you be like discord and ask the recovery if it was the user. Also the form isn’t good.

    @lukesillies @Outlook … after every hand-off. All the while, their apps and tech solutions offered no channels for problem solving.

  • chris_hansson
    Christoffer Hansson (@chris_hansson) reported

    @Outlook Please fix your iOS app. When replying to an email, the preview shouldn’t auto-scroll to the bottom of it. What I’m replying to is at the top of the email. This seriously makes your app almost useless to me.

    @Outlook hi I have no work emails for the last 2 days as I cannot login to my authenticator app as I lost the password. Is there a way I can access the emails without going through 365 office

  • FarAndRide
    Far And Ride (@FarAndRide) reported

    @Outlook please can you help us? Clients using Outlook with Hotmail accounts are currently unable to email us to our @farandride.com accounts, they bounce back. We are losing business as they believe issue must be on our side, but no problem receiving emails other ways? 🙏

    @Outlook good morning team, Since the last update march 2022 from you, I keep getting unwanted junk mail in my Focused Inbox?? I never had that problem before. Ever. When is this going to be fixed? I'm going back to Gmail if this continues. I've done the usual tips and tricks 😭

    @Outlook and again I get no push notifications for new mails from an exchange account with the iOS app. This is a dealbreaker for a mail client. What’s broken?

  • tphakala

    please @Outlook stop enforcing new Outlook on mac, its terrible

  • lukesillies
    Luke Sillies (@lukesillies) reported

    I often think about disruption and how good UX should win out. But then I have spent 2 hours (not a joke) trying to figure out how to ask permission to see someones calendar on @Outlook on web. One article suggest a button then said, "If having trouble consult an IT professional"

    Dr. Brain Nerd (@DrBrainNerd) reported

    @Volsicle @Outlook And it confuses me. Even if I want to type the same, I start making errors that I otherwise wouldn't make, and then I started looking at the keyboard instead the screen while typing and that is just bad.

  • BenMarks
    Ben Marks (@BenMarks) reported

    Okay #LazyWeb: how do you quickly flag emails for followup in @Outlook for iOS? • I dislike flagging, which seems broken in latest version • I can right-click and create an appointment; works, but a bit cumbersome Add-ins or native, I'll be in your debt.
