    @Outlook for months my outlook stops responding, usually when doing a search. Happening to everyone in my office. When are you going to fix this?? I have to force quit several times a day. Please fix this.

  • cgthomsen1 Christoffer Thomsen (@cgthomsen1) reported

    The Android version of @Outlook keeps having problems with the contents of messages not loading. Have to close the mail and open it again and hope that this time it loads. Maybe I'll go back to the PWA. It's slow to start, but at least it works.

  • MaryBarrosR Mariana 🆘 (@MaryBarrosR) reported

    @Outlook it’s amazing how the outlook support doesn’t work at all! I don’t know why I lost the access to my account and It’s IMPOSSIBLE to solve the problem!

  • photoheathen Mark ◣ ◢ (@photoheathen) reported

    @Outlook fix your spam filter!

  • NikkiClints Nikki Clinton (@NikkiClints) reported

    @Outlook PLEASE! can someone help. I am 8 days into a conversation with support online and no further afield. We are going round in circles, same questions asked. - response per day. Please can I just have a number to speak to someone who resolve my issue ASAP. Thank you.

  • falsecosmonaut Dakota (@falsecosmonaut) reported

    @Outlook is there a place I can officially report a bug? I've encountered a bizarre issue with folder creation and I want to make MS aware of the issue as it may be a security concern.

  • MrsHockridge Mrs. Hockridge (@MrsHockridge) reported

    When using the O365 @Outlook calendar, “all days events” that I have created for myself are now showing as spanning 2 days even though the start and end times are correct. Any ideas for how I may fix this?

  • Dr_Jenny_Root Dr. Jenny Root (@Dr_Jenny_Root) reported

    Why is the @Outlook search function sooooooo terrible ? #AcademicTwitter #AcademicChatter

  • zeusruledcronos Mark Dwen (@zeusruledcronos) reported

    @Outlook fix your spam filter!

  • DominoJohn dominique johnson (@DominoJohn) reported

    @Outlook Yes was looking for your message. Couldn't repond had whole day meetings. Had to uninstall and reinstall again and that seemed to fix the problem. Hopefully it is fix. Thank you for your reply. Sorry for the delay.

  • Jess_Wade Jessica Wade (@Jess_Wade) reported

    This is a very minor problem compared to the woes of the world, but @Outlook, please move the search bar back to where it was. We have all suffered enough.

  • ilanithab Ilanit Habot (@ilanithab) reported

    @NiranEC @Outlook Fighting to add .ics files to the outlook client. However, it works for the OWA. I hate outlook. Any suggestions how to solve the issue? The IT insists that the file is broken. However thousands of this travel agency clients don't complain. It is killing me!

  • AmberpPaterson Amber P (@AmberpPaterson) reported

    @Outlook It was fixed this morning. Looks like a issue thru out nz

  • MO_Onhunter Bente (@MO_Onhunter) reported

    @Outlook Hi, I imported an agenda in Outlook but it doesn't have a name and it's invisble unless I try to import it again. I think something went wrong with importing. How to fix?

  • ForemanTaxLaw Matt Foreman (@ForemanTaxLaw) reported

    @George_A_Callas @Outlook You do know you can stop those autocorrects, right? You can't fix the 'S election' issue.

  • MisterM77696321 Mister M (@MisterM77696321) reported

    @Outlook I don’t want to edit my dictionary to recognize the spelling that the person I’m responding to used in spelling their name. That’s a broken idea for how to use broken software. I’m not asking how to use a bandaid, I’m pointing out a problem to fix.

  • dsuoch Dietmar Suoch (@dsuoch) reported

    and another @Outlook issue - clicking a local file share link that unfortunately times out, prevents other links from opening. Once the blocker times out, the other queued up open attempts happen 👍

    @Outlook fix your spam filter!

  • Hassaneqbal1 Hassan Iqbal (@Hassaneqbal1) reported

    @Outlook none of the attachments in my mailbox can be down or viewed It results into an error , I have tried it on several devices but of no help

  • cTiffney Chrissy (@cTiffney) reported

    @Outlook the newest upgrade removing the calendar from the room finder is terrible!! I use that feature the most. I read on the forum I should just revert to an older outlook because this is an “enhancement” Please let me know how removing the calendar is an enhancement

  • photoheathen Mark ◣ ◢ (@photoheathen) reported

    @Outlook fix your spam filter!

  • Tehmii_ tee (@Tehmii_) reported

    @Outlook doesn’t make sense that I can’t recall emails on Mac but l can on Windows. fix it please, thanks.

  • MplsBarry Barry Johnson (@MplsBarry) reported

    @MSFTExchange @Outlook Suggestion: Delayed delivery should execute via Exchange not Outlook (if using w/ Exchange acct). If I do a delayed delivery when out w/ my Surface Pro, it should not need to be on/available for delivery to occur. A minor issue, but longtime irritation. Thx

  • aebarbour -on a beach- (@aebarbour) reported

    @Outlook starting today, 3rd Sept, your app on Android, keeps hanging / crashing therefore is unusable. Are you aware of any issues?

  • saurabh_ss007 saurabh shukla (@saurabh_ss007) reported

    @Outlook Dont getting code on mobile for few days.official works are pending. Number is fine and problem appears in multiplicity of many colleagues.

  • james_lewis James Lewis (@james_lewis) reported

    @microsoft @Outlook surely it would be a v.simple matter to check any email flagged with keywords like "invoice" "sign in" and big companies, that don't have the domain name matching the company to catch most phishing in your email services?

  • brandonjhuffman Brandon J. Huffman (@brandonjhuffman) reported

    @RyanJBlack @Outlook I feel this. Gmail tags allow for quick searching ... When the cache isn't so bogged down it glitches and starts o er presumably because you have too many subfolders.

  • grahamjones Graham Jones (@grahamjones) reported

    @Outlook There is a problem with the web version. All-day items that correctly show in Outlook desktop and the phone app are showing as two-day items on a web browser. I tested this on a different computer, and on different browsers minus extensions. The problem is repeatable.
