    The fact that any @Microsoft @Outlook client on @windows 10 can be this sh*ty in 2020 is a tragedy. Beware "the name cannot be matched to a name in the address list" error. You will lose your soul trying to resolve.

  • TheGablesDuddo The Gables Berwick Luxury B+B (@TheGablesDuddo) reported

    Anyone who uses @Outlook for e mail and are not experiencing major problems are v lucky. The app is currently v unreliable and glitch laden. Support is non existent. If interested read the app reviews in playstore... Its like a 1st tine 3rd rate copycat application. AVOID IT!!

    @Apple @AppleSupport why can’t we move pages around in iphone like we use to and why can’t you add pages in between pages? You really ruined organising apps. Not to mention your fight with @Outlook where iphone users using mail app must now sign in 100 times a day every 2 minutes
