    @MPalermiti @Outlook @AppStore Outlook shortcuts on my iPhone are not working. "When's my next meeting" says I don't have anything scheduled today or tomorrow but that's not true. I can't find any help on this online.

    @kamilprokop @Microsoft @Outlook Same issue, I did an update not able to see me email

  • hooksnbooks Erika Imranyi (@hooksnbooks) reported

    .@Outlook needs a “like” function that allows you to acknowledge receipt of an email without having to full-on reply. I bet that would solve a lot of our email volume/confirm receipt problems.

    My @Outlook isn't working on Google Chrome, so I either have to use my phone or Internet Explorer (yes, you read that right). It's kind of a pain in the ***... Why isn't it working on Chrome? I seem to be the only one having problems...

    Among all of the service/cost problems with @cox the most frustrating is there inability maintain access to @Outlook Email system. Went along fine for years and now it just fails.
