  • JusstineM110 Justine Morgan (@JusstineM110) reported

    @pandatrueno_ @Outlook There is an outage. I cannot access mine either

  • Jaesais Anthony Diaz (@Jaesais) reported

    @Outlook can we get a simple thumbs up and thumbs down experience for email? Way too much spam and phishing somehow hitting my main inbox instead of being sent to spam folders. I would like to think we don’t need @Twitter to make an email domain to handle emails too. 🥲

  • Steve_katongo Steve Muir (@Steve_katongo) reported

    @katherineschof8 @Outlook Yup. Not working very well for me either! Will let you know if it changes!

  • ljono79 Lisa Jono (@ljono79) reported

    @Outlook @Gothloretta Can you check your DM..still having issues with emails..can't send any out from my phone, but can on web version? Please reply ASAP thanks

  • GrahamBrack Graham Brack (@GrahamBrack) reported

    @katherineschof8 @Outlook I had a problem on Thursday evening that a quick repair wouldn’t sort and had to do a more extensive repair overnight. Working fine now but it wasn’t downloading in the desktop.

  • bara Alex (@bara) reported

    The geniuses at @Outlook decided to hide the folder list by default on my mom's account. Just spent 30 minutes remotely troubleshooting the issue. Glad @Microsoft under Satya cares about user experience.

  • iamabofh Suresh R (@iamabofh) reported

    @GrahamBrack @katherineschof8 @Outlook That isn’t a client issue - your outlook has no role other than to hand the mail off to your university mailserver (exchange / office 365?). That is what has to send the message on, so your university email admins should be able to tell you where the logjam is.

  • TheGeneTakovic Gene Takovic (@TheGeneTakovic) reported

    @Outlook IOS app is useless because you cannot receive notifications for subfolders. This feature has been asked for for many years and nothing. Using outlook rules to deliver mail to folders and the app will not notify you of the mail, this is ridiculous, FIX IT ALREADY!

  • islem_khefacha KHEFACHA ISLEM (@islem_khefacha) reported

    @Outlook I have a problem with my mailing using outlook I don’t find my emails sent iu received before 18 January 2023 why ?

  • Nyanko56955551 Nyanko太 (@Nyanko56955551) reported

    @MSOfficeJP @Outlook Hello Team ! Outlook is there any outage going on in Japan ? The mail keeps on loading. The emails we sent are still in the outbox.

  • BriAlyse23 B (@BriAlyse23) reported

    @Outlook Are yall experiencing an outage?

  • Kay59522518 Kay (@Kay59522518) reported

    @Microsoft @Outlook Hi, I removed an email from outlook and my device is still showing up the past email i removed although it is not anywhere on my phone!! please fix your app!

  • Simon818 Simon J🦣 (@Simon818) reported

    @SeedyThreepio Not sure. Could have something to do with the way the mail servers are configured workside; they're slowly transitioning people from a selfhosted mail server. But I also tried to set up my own @outlook.com address and that broke hard.

  • conspiresi Esi. (@conspiresi) reported

    The phishing emails on @Outlook is getting ridiculous! I get at least 10 a day. Why are they not dealing with this issue? 😩

  • brandnewemail Sky (@brandnewemail) reported

    @Outlook FIX YOUR APP an important email draft just disappeared after working on it off and on for 3 ******* hours on my android tablet.

  • katherineschof8 Dr Katherine Schofield 🇬🇧🇦🇺 (@katherineschof8) reported

    Is it just me, or is @Outlook having trouble sending emails to desktop mail clients in the UK ATM? Because it’s definitely not a problem at my end (gmail/proton arriving fine), but nothing’s arrived from my work Outlook since Friday. Can’t keep doing work email with my thumbs.

  • HEMJOSHI92 Hemanshu Joshi (@HEMJOSHI92) reported

    @Outlook my email is not loading . Is there any ongoing outage ?
