    @Outlook @Windows @Office Hi all can you tell me if there is a problem with your software or servers. I have been having problems with my Outlook for the last two days

  • infination Infination Technology (@infination) reported

    @Outlook Why would any Company who professes and/or believes in the morals of "Trustworthy Computing" need to TRACK PEOPLE DOWN who SEND EMAILS ON THEIR SERVICE. Is it for your PENTAGON or your ICE contracts? If so, WHAT is a good reason to use your service? Protection shakedown?

  • loraine7052 loraine (@loraine7052) reported

    @Outlook hi my dads forgotten his password, when he tries to reset it and puts in the last 4 digits of his number for a recovery code he gets a message saying there's an issue with the service. Is this something that is being fixed?

  • hariomkeshav Hari Om Keshav (@hariomkeshav) reported

    @Outlook it’s very difficult to reset password for outlook mail I’d. My nephew has created a new email and applied with it in college. He messed up password and we are in deep trouble. Life would have so easy with gmail

    @Outlook Question: In my Samsung phone the app, which I've had forever, wants me to create a new account or add one. Won't let me sign in. What's up? Thanks.

  • drorhanerdem Orhan E (@drorhanerdem) reported

    @isaeminhafalir @Outlook Agreed. When you search for “A and B”, it searches for the word “and”. Terrible.

  • martinkrafft martin ➬ (@martinkrafft) reported

    Landed on @Outlook SMTP blacklists due to a stupid error on my behalf. Filed ticket with #Microsoft, following documented procedure. Got response in less than 6 hours. Had block removed in less than 24 hours. Never thought I'd say this, but: well done, Microsoft! #sysadmin

  • isaeminhafalir İsa Hafalır (@isaeminhafalir) reported

    @ozkesali @Outlook I am not using any email client, just using web version and search feature is terrible there. Maybe I should switch to an email program to solve this.

  • baamulaaiza Amit Verma (@baamulaaiza) reported

    Hi @tim_cook I have been breaking my head over with apple tech team and they are clueless / shrugging off the shoulders from the issue I am facing with iOS. They are asking to have @Outlook and @BillGates call them. This is really absurd. Apple Case ID: 101402971985. Please help!

  • 2petcat Matthew (@2petcat) reported

    .@Microsoft .@Outlook the new update is honestly the worst... fix it now pls

  • N1cks Nicks (@N1cks) reported

    @adamkranitz @Outlook Yes!! Pleased it's not just me. FYI reinstalling the app & re-adding accounts does not fix this issue. Hope @MicrosoftHelps sorts this soon. Outlook previews are part of my workflow.

  • ashokpanvalkar Ashok Panvalkar (@ashokpanvalkar) reported

  • BinaryJam Simon Tocker (@BinaryJam) reported

    Is anyone else sick to death of the rendering capabilties of the @Outlook client whilst living in a world of @Office365 Actionable AdaptiveCards. There are updates to this client all the time, but this is key to progress of 365/PowerPlatform and its dragging the side down :(

  • ozkesali Ali Ozkes (@ozkesali) reported

    @isaeminhafalir @Outlook This is curious. BION, I moved to Outlook recently from Apple Mail app, because of exactly the same problem. Maybe this is because I did not update the OS for a while. So far Outlook does it for me.

  • QualityFrog Ben Simo 🕵️ (@QualityFrog) reported

    The Microsoft @Outlook calendar appears to have been built with the assumption that every user has a consistent work schedule and only works with people who work the same schedule in the same time zone. This is a problem.

  • Mot_Mag Mo (@Mot_Mag) reported

    @Outlook Is it possible to (completely) disable autocorrect? The main issue I’m having is when typing out chess moves, outlook will always change the first letter of a sentence from lowercase to uppercase, forcing me to backspace and type again (no change the second time). Help

  • badbradbruh badbradbruh (@badbradbruh) reported

    @outlook How can I fix the issue? When I mark an e-mail as 'not junk' a rule should be made for the sender to not ever move to 'Junk'. Is it just my account? I have to manually add all these entities into my address book? Safe senders list? Can't I just mark 'not junk'?

  • NiksDavid Nikhil David (@NiksDavid) reported

    @Microsoft @Outlook is there a way to contact customer support? I have been trying for days. If my issue is not on the drop-down will I not get the support? Your customer support is turning my hopes down.

  • rbo_ne Rudolph Bott (@rbo_ne) reported

    @martinkrafft @Outlook Actually Microsoft email services finally got me to stop running email services myself. I had on and off problems for more than two years and nothing seemed to help :(
