    @netsolcares @Apple @Outlook I changed it to 0 on oct 18th as directed referring to server 0. That’s when the problems began. I’ve called tech service twice and created a ticket. Tech says server 0 is not working But will be fixed in 24 hours and send me an email to verify it’s fixed. Sent nothing.

    @gmail @Outlook My wife’s having a problem on Outlook on multiple devices (iOS & Mac) where her gmail account only shows mail up-to 12 noon today. Web and the official gmail app shows all mail up until now. Any known syncing issues or tips to jump start syncing more recent mail?

  • patrickmatusz
    Patrick Matusz • dschüsä (@patrickmatusz) reported

    @mahoekst Yes. And freezings of the whole system without any cpu 'involved'. Deinstalled @Adobe reader and 90% of the issues gone. @Outlook seems to do the rest. Flickering when approaching my multi monitor setup, even without "vibrations".

    @Outlook @ATLGreg1 This is happening to me as well. Sync has been broken since Saturday for gmail. However, the native iOS mail app works fine. None of these solutions in the link are relevant. I’ve even tried deleting the app and reinstalling

  • abgoldberg
    Andrew B. Goldberg (@abgoldberg) reported

    @legoszm @gmail @Outlook Same here. Same exact thing on fresh setup on different computer—mail loads upto a certain time but nothing more recent, so definitely some kind of server-side imap/api bug.

    @Outlook Can you reply to my direct message. There must be some kind of way of speaking to someone directly about my issue. I have submitted multiple forms. I want to make a formal complaint or have my issue escalated. This is causing me so much distress.

  • pcguy8088
    Greg (@pcguy8088) reported

    I should of known better than to rely on @Outlook on iOS for my default mail app. Spent an hr trying to figure out why 1 of my Gmail accounts was not showing emails especially 1 in particular. Seems Outlook has known sync issue. Screams & no one hears me.

    @Outlook I get so much obvious spam in my inbox lately. I can’t believe how terrible your filters are.

    @severuduw @Outlook I don't trust POP3 - the whole remove from server doesn't jive with me. I need sync, hence IMAP. SMTP Auth is a whole nother level of frustration with @Microsoft365

  • ATLGreg1

    So @outlook for iOS having a pretty big problem with gmail syncing the last few days. Looks like a lot of people having similar issues. Sigh.

    I wish I could compose @Outlook emails in #markdown, the goofy formatting of this WYSIWYG editor is killing me… especially when you paste in from another source 😔 How is this still a problem in 2021?

    @Outlook pathetic support [Case #:28737200] - emails services down for UPMSCL no support at all cheating customers contact me on +9910960009

  • miket136
    Michael Thomlinson (@miket136) reported

    @Outlook your mobile app has become un-useable on iOS. Lags, freezes, crashes. Support claimed this was a known issue which was being resolved but it still persists 3 updates later. I’m back to the OEM Mail app and missing accompli.

    So... My Outlook mobile app for iphone stopped syncing my Yahoo mail, but not my exchange work email. When I go to support, says there is "a known outage" but that's it... Anything you can recommend? Yes, everything is updated (app and iOS). @Outlook

    @Outlook one of my @gmail accounts is not syncing with my gmail using Android version of Outlook I have deleted the account and re added and still not working

  • ProfSuess
    Steve Suess (@ProfSuess) reported

    I have no problem sending unread emails to the trash in @gmail. I have to read (or mark as having been read) every email before I delete in @Outlook. The difference? Gmail doesn't give me a bold notification next to the folder with how many unread emails are in it.

    @paulrobichaux @Outlook Yep that was a great one to wake up to.. reinstall and grabbed the latest build 4.2149.0 and back in the game! ( unless that build was what caused the issue 🧐)

    @jp_myers @Outlook I was out and needed to refer to a prior email for info. I had to phone the office to have someone look it up on my Gmail account on my desktop. Think I will ditch Gmail out of the Outlook app. This is not the first time I have had Gmail issues in the Outlook app either.

    @Outlook can you advise when the server issues will be sorted? Thanks
