  • dotsmy DOT*S*M*Y - trans lives matter (@dotsmy) reported

    Hey @Office, @Outlook: No one has EVER wanted to save the changes on a calendar invite where they've only clicked a zoom link. It's a MASSIVE ballache clicking "no I don't want to save changes" on a trillion windows when I give my computer its bi-monthly shut down rest.

    @BlkThemyscira @Outlook @outlook What's going on? Have you been hacked? Woke up today to dozens more spam messages... some not vetted by your filter and those that were are all same junk as yesterday so obviously your reporting feature is broken.

    @Outlook @MicrosoftHelps Is Outlook down? I can't seem to access it - neither web interface, nor outlook clients on my desktop.

  • BecHornbrook Rebecca Hornbrook (@BecHornbrook) reported

    @MarloWordyBird @Outlook This sounds less like a problem and more like an opportunity.

  • whatKEZsays MKE Housewife (@whatKEZsays) reported

    @Outlook you have to fix the issue that is deleting the email draft while it’s not in pop out mode. Do I really need to type the same email five times before I send it? No. You’re wasting our time.

  • TopazStudiosCOM TopazStudios.com (@TopazStudiosCOM) reported

    @BlkThemyscira @Outlook @Outlook fix this! Have paid for Outlook for many years but this month the amount of junk mail is over the top. Receiving dozens of junk emails every few minutes. Marking each as junk and reporting them does absolutely nothing.

  • LouisStorme Louis-Xavier Storme (@LouisStorme) reported

    @Outlook your service is blocking emails from my server even if your console SNDS doesn't show any abnormal status, what is the next step? Can you fix your system?

  • ratszack Zaxster (@ratszack) reported

    @Outlook The amount of SPAM that I’m receiving in both of my hotmail accounts the past 3 months is maddening. I’m thinking of switching to gmail. I have no problem with SPAM on that business email. Do something! #Microsoft #Outlook #SPAM

    @Outlook hi my emails seemed to have all disappeared from my inbox? Is this a known issue.? And is it a possibility to get them back.?

  • gazcoop Gary Cooper (@gazcoop) reported

    @JenMsft @ailon I logged in once through Edge to another @outlook.com account I have and now I'm prompted to login to sync through File Explorer. When I hit the sync button I'm prompted for those credentials not my main account.
