    @Outlook I don't have access to my account because the password and recovery email were changed to ones I don't know, so this is useless information as it doesn't help me resolve my problem.

    @ProtonMail @Outlook @mozthunderbird This must be a joke. I'm experiencing issues since months. Upgrading to the newest version did not change anything. Emails that I send are cut somewhere in the middle. I am paying for a service that doesnt work properly.

    Don't know if you any of you guys have @Outlook, but for the last few days, I've been bombarded with spam email in my inbox. The spam filter is disgustingly broken right now.

    @Lois68 @Outlook I had the same problem too, I kept on trying to contact Outlook but they didn't do anything about it. Not until I was referred to @KurtisSoftware , he helped me resolve the issue within minutes.

    @Outlook Hi, we seem to have a problem with emails going into our junk folder from regular contacts that have never been reported junk. This may be a new email from a contact or a reply. Is there an error? We are having to move each email to our inbox each time. Please advise.

    @Outlook That isn’t gonna do a damn thing to help me. it’s you guys and your developers! I’m a customer. Either fix the issue or I’m done being a Microsoft Customer! Giving me this bot generic made message ain’t gonna do anything either.

    @Outlook Microsoft Outlook has been terrible for our firm. We may have to make a change from Microsoft. When I delete an email, It then says “trash” and I have to delete it again..& 1 more time. I have to delete it 3 times and it’s beyond time consuming. I’ve called but they don’t help.

    @Outlook I sat on the phone with Outlook support 3 months ago to fix this. They took up my entire day. I lost thousands in business that day & they still haven’t fixed the matter. Outlook needs to learn how to take care of their customers. This is really bad and costing too much

    @Outlook "Do more to filter spam" will be my feedback. Enterprise level spam filtering has no issue with looking at keywords or profiling emails prior to them arriving. Feels like it's well within Microsoft's reach.

    @Outlook What have you done now? Every time you meddle with Outlook and add even more bells-and-whistles, you make the whole thing clunkier. It's almost unusable now - very slow-loading and slow-going while typing an e-mail on Firefox web browser, on a laptop. Please stop adding

    @Outlook Microsoft customer support keeps hanging up while I’m on hold. I guess my company is supposed to just shut down for the day???? This is insane!!! They are killing businesses. Stay away if you are a small business.

    It’s extremely frustrating how difficult @Outlook makes their out of office message feature. I’ve googled how to set up and no directions are aligned, I’ve checked all places in the email to find it. Can not find!It should be a simple click of button. Like…Can y’all fix that?
