    @Outlook why are you still having issues with Outlook mail log in ? This has been a problem for weeks and not resolved. I’m constantly having to re enter my password as it logs out.

  • dellskin Dell S Kin (@dellskin) reported

    Are @outlook imap servers down or does @bluemail have problems? My outlook app is fine, but bluemail has not synced my hotmail account since 12:06am est. I have stopped and cleared bluemail cache with no effect.

  • AAMurado Murado (@AAMurado) reported

    @Outlook Can I please have someone contact me? This issue is not resolved and in-app support is not helping. I've seen here on Twitter others are having IMAP issues asking them to keep signing in. I'd really appreciate it.

  • batmatty matthew hig🐝 (@batmatty) reported

    Dear @Microsoft, you updated the @Outlook app for iPad and now it no longer works. I depend on your garbage software for my job. Please fix your trash and be better.

    @Outlook @AppleSupport I have my email set up through the mail app on my iPhone, but for weeks I’ve been having to re-input my outlook password to be able to check my email. Fed up of being constantly logged out & see many others have this issue. Is there a fix for this coming?

  • GlobalWJ Will Johnson (@GlobalWJ) reported

    There seems to be a bug with @Outlook where when you click on a recurring meeting in "Outlook Today" it opens the series of meetings rather than today's meeting. An issue when someone updates a single meeting to include a new Zoom link or when you try to cancel a single meeting.
