  • vera_mari_memes 🖤 سوریا (@vera_mari_memes) reported

    Whenever I try to send an email to a new email ID, it automatically goes to the spam folder. I have faced this issue and need support to fix it because many people don't check their spam folder often. I am not engaging in any spam activities. @Outlook #outlook #Microsoft

    @Outlook your web portal has SO many password issues it's ridiculous. Same password works on mobile, but not on desktop. Insane.

    @davepl1968 They had one job: iterate on XP. And they failed. Now we all live with a broken Electron @Outlook app that is 10x slower than the first Outlook Express release.

  • Rae_in_SA Rae (@Rae_in_SA) reported

    @Outlook What the hell Microsoft? My MA365 Outlook Classic keeps crashing when I try to open it and now Excel and Word did the same thing. What did you do to the desktop apps that they don’t work? This ridiculous! new Outlook online is for ****! I’ve lost important tasks and features if I try to use Outlook online. You’re a BILLION dollar company! FIX THIS ****!

    @CA75253969 @InnerPhoenix420 @Outlook Even uninstalling it completely using Revo uninstaller. And this problem is happening with all browsers, not just Firefox. Microsoft is shitting the bed in general. They started letting AI do their coding and already windows 11 are turning into a disaster because of this.

    This has not only pathetic UI but you also cannot simply get excel tables edited, format texts and highlight the word. Additionally, it's way too slow. If you guys were not ready, what was the urgency to discontinue the classic outlook?? @BillGates @satyanadella @Outlook

  • lostliano lostliano (@lostliano) reported

    @DevSlashNulled @outlook.de/com still has issues, mails only get sent when clicking the re-send mail button in the verification screen (at least that was the case yesterday)
