    @Outlook hi, I keep getting “account error:hotmail, cannot get mail” error on my iPhone 12 which I’ve never had happen before. Was working fine but won’t work now and all troubleshooting I’ve tried hasn’t worked. Can you help?

  • salamurai Yorick (@salamurai) reported

    Yay i found a search term foe web @Outlook that lets you sort-of filter your emails by date received<10/01/2020 (example date) Trouble is, it's not smart enough to actually find all the items (ive done it five times now) and you still have to scroll all the way to the end

  • iamkaiwright Kai Wright, Esq. (@iamkaiwright) reported

    @Jodlet @AppleSupport @Outlook It’s an Outlook problem and they tried to pass it off as resolved a week or two ago 🙄 every bloody day since, mine has done it!

  • sxciky Iky (@sxciky) reported

    @Outlook @Microsoft over a decade ago a man in a cave managed to take down two towers. 2020, iOS is constantly logging me out of my outlook accounts. ******* sort it you *****.

  • gogs42 GEORGE (@gogs42) reported

    @Outlook @Apple Your silence speaks volumes so u know there is a problem and just don’t want to communicate. Gone are the days where u should worry about brand image, these days people want companies to be open, honest and transparent!

  • HighPent77 Laura =/\= 𖤐⚢⚅ (@HighPent77) reported

    Is @Outlook ever going to fix the constant need to re-enter your password in iOS?

  • OfficialWillNev Will Neville (@OfficialWillNev) reported

    @sihudsonmusic @eatingpetitpois @Outlook It’s something about bi-factor security. My work emails have started doing on my phone. Literally the most annoying 1st world problem ever.

  • LunulaLeaf Stream 🌻🌺 (@LunulaLeaf) reported

    @Outlook can you fix your account errors. I keep having to log into my email every 5 minutes

  • _MacauleyBurns Macauley Burns (@_MacauleyBurns) reported from Dunfermline, Scotland

    @Jodlet @AppleSupport @Outlook Trick of the day. Mine was doing this too. Log out of them on apple mail and re sign in as an exchange account not hotmail. It’s seemed to work

  • TheSimArchitect 🥰 Sim 🦃🥧🎄 Architect 🏡 (@TheSimArchitect) reported

    .@Outlook for web needs to give us the option to NOT show/load images unless we pre veto the sender, otherwise the sender will know we read their message and keep spamming us. Can't find the setting anywhere, you just proxy it instead, which still sends a server request.

  • cerisedeterre Cerisedeterre🇨🇴🇨🇦 (@cerisedeterre) reported

    @Outlook where can i go to try to fix an accout thief?

  • jfkenney James Kenney (@jfkenney) reported

    @ionica_official @Outlook as its "from account team" and it's "to account team", I would find this quite dubious, plus the incorrect capitalization further on down. Ignore it!

  • lavanyadeepak Deepak Kumar Vasudevan (@lavanyadeepak) reported

    There seems to be inordinately long delays in #email delivery with @Outlook @Office365 today! Any #DDoS issues with #Microsoft datacenters?

  • Maddie84106937 Commentary (@Maddie84106937) reported

    @Outlook I read that you are reporting the issue with the repeated sign in issue following the IOS update to be resolved however, it is still happening to me everyday. Please can you continue trying to sort the issue or provide information to your users on how to fix
