Are MS hacked?

    @microsoft @office @outlook Can one of you advise why, when sending an email that there is a box called cc? Should this not be ex (electronically copied)? Carbon copy is just not correct in today’s era of digital copies. Could have issues with AI at a later stage of software evo.

  • gamesover James Moberg (@gamesover) reported

    I'm experiencing something odd with @MicrosoftEdge. It may involve @Outlook too, but I'm not sure. Sometimes when I click on a link, it opens the webpage after cloning my existing browser with all tabs. I'm not sure how to resolve or troubleshoot the issue. Anyone else?

  • princessvampie venetta castle (@princessvampie) reported

    @Outlook Why is Hotmail still down for some people and your blocking accounts for incorrect password attempts when the password is correct but your server isn't responding even when filling out the info forms for account recovery and sending people in a loop..were you guys hacked?

  • s_net Silvio Di Benedetto (@s_net) reported

    So, the new @Outlook doesn't support more than 3 language into the Editor....🤦 Another reason why the adoption is slow. #DBS @Microsoft365
