    @Outlook I appreciate your help is limited to forums but is there anywhere or anyone that can answer the specific issue I have. If my account is deleted then why can’t I create a new one in the same name? Also can Outlook support tell me when the account was deleted? Thank you 2/2

    @Outlook We're having an issue here in Nepal to send the messages from webmail to Outlook and to send the emails from Outlook to webmails. Even the government webmails are not able to receive the emails from Outlook accounts. Please fix these issues. Because this is becoming a disaster.

    Protip: @Outlook is either broken or Microsoft just gave up trying to keep spammy, scammy emails out of regular inboxes because I have dozens of contest wins, orders ready, special offers from people who can't write English, and so much more all in the last two days in my Inbox.

    The @Outlook mobile app has become completely unusable on iOS due to constant freezing and crashing, known-issues their technical support claimed months ago were being addressed. I'm back to the stock iOS email app and wishing @Microsoft had never purchased Acompli.

    @meanderingleaf @Outlook It flagged my first sentence of a reply. “Too much craziness, so I haven’t done the confirmation-of-the-confirmation emails yet. Maybe today or over the weekend. Sorry for the delay and confusion.” Artificial intelligence seeing this as a tone problem? Hmm. OK.

    Argh, I found another issue with @Outlook Online (via 365) compared to GSuite. I'm to blame for this, but I have SO SO MANY aliases for my email address on GSuite. None of which I can replicate into my Outlook 365 to get the exact same setup.

    @Outlook @MicrosoftHelps Now emails from my Wife, exactly as I've received many many times before, are being caught in "Junk" along with Amazon! What's going on and when can I expect a fix? Or am I best to go back to Gmail & stop paying for Microsoft 365?

    Haven’t received any emails for atleast 24 hours now when I usually get dozens of junk ones a day. App and mail both say “the connection to the server failed” and “account error”. Tried signing in/out and resetting - what going on? @Outlook

    @mrfantin2021 @Outlook I’ve come to twitter @Outlook as myself and a lot of other people are struggling with this. Accounts have been locked for weeks and nothing seems to be being down. It’s all over the community forum. Please can you get in touch.

    @mrfantin2021 @Outlook They hardly respond to complaints like these because they have less staffs due to the network issues so save your self the stress and contact @Hack_Ray_ he can help you with your account.

    @Outlook E-Mail: Ctrl+Return -> Send E-Mail @GitHub Issues: Ctrl+Return -> Save Comment @Office365 Word: Ctrl+Return on a comment -> nothing happens. But for sure $ 250'000 budget for the #UX department.

    Why can’t I sync my @Microsoft @Outlook with @gmail? It’s worked for awhile and abruptly has stopped. I have tried deleting and re-adding and still not working.

    Hey @Outlook, it would be great if when companies had frequent logouts set up, for example. Once a week my company has us logged out on our personal phones, every time you re-login/re-link to association, you have to redo your mobile signature. - Get Outlook for IOS

    @Outlook Yeah I know how to spot them, blocking and reporting is the issue its to clumbersone. Hence why E-mail is just used if I need a password verification. If anyone ever tries to actually contact me it will just get lost in the spam. E-mail is essentially a dead usual addition.
