Pachy💜🐘🦣❄️⛄️ (@luvselefantes) reportedUgh @Outlook for years I’ve set up rules for my hotmail inbox to divert emails to folders. Every day they are ignored. I have to reassign daily. I get 200-400 emails a day. This is not working. I want to delete all rules to start over. But I have to delete them one at a time?

Sounds like Last Regrets (@Lascurettes) reported@boctorbill @MicrosoftTeams @Outlook Actually, I have no problem pasting images into chat. I rely on it in fact. Because if you drag a file in, it wants to add it to One Drive. Either select an image file in Finder and copy it then paste it in chat, or use screen grab tools to copy to your clipboard and paste.
-
brent (@brentusmc) reported@Outlook @catarinarod2009 Same on iPhone as well im guessing the mobile website is down
