    @Microsoft @MicrosoftTeams @Outlook , For the past two days, Outlook (web version) acts weirdly. New calendar invitations do not show the RSVP options (Yes, No & Maybe) In MS Teams, people get disconnected often and the screen share is very slow. #India #Chennai #Microsoft

  • KonasMama Smarty Pants 🏳️‍🌈🌊🌈🐕⚾️📚🌻🇺🇦💉 (@KonasMama) reported

    @Outlook Now that @Microsoft is laying off 10,000 people, does this mean that the junk email problem will get better? Who am I fooling? They have never sincerely made an effort to easily fix this problem. If I get 10 emails, I'll also get 25 junk emails. Every day. 10x a day.

  • MyReadyGuide Melisa H., MBA 🎓 (@MyReadyGuide) reported

    @Outlook Thank you for your response- problem solved. My domain expired so I had to go in and fix that- everything works now 😎 User error. Thank you for your prompt response.

  • TekNeil TekNeil ™ (@TekNeil) reported

    Hey @Outlook Has there been a database issue/roll back? Couple of days ago I spent lots of time creating new folders, and organising emails into those folders while deleting others. Today, all of that work has been completely reversed, folders gone! And all deleted mail back!?!

  • collywolly68 col (@collywolly68) reported

    @Outlook I messaged you guys on here over 8 hours ago, your message to me said message back for assistance, which I did. I am still waiting. My faith in Microsoft is going down the pain rapidly

  • DeniseCutts DENISE (@DeniseCutts) reported

    @Outlook Please can you help, my email is not working

  • ChrisGiaquinto Chris Giaquinto (@ChrisGiaquinto) reported

    The new update for @Outlook is TERRIBLE. Why do I have a giant bar on the left that makes my screen size incredibly smaller when it was fine to have tiny buttons on the bottom & access to my calendar at a glance??

  • dcwinter Name cannot be blank (@dcwinter) reported

    @Outlook has a huge problem with spam. I've reported spam for hundreds of emails over the last few days and yet it keeps getting worse.

  • AllenM_30 Allen M (@AllenM_30) reported

    @Outlook can you get your app to open quicker??!! The delay with the envelope opening 4-5 times is slow & irritating. If you open other tabs (EdgeorChrome) while waiting when you go back, tab for Outlook hasn't opened the app, starts the envelope opening again. May chg to gmail

  • TheRealMukeshK MK 🇮🇳 (@TheRealMukeshK) reported

    Dear @Outlook, I'm not sure if ever someone reported or not, but when you choose reply/reply to all option on Microsoft Outlook email, it removes the attachment of the email & needs to be attached again while if you choose to forward it keeps the attachment. Can you plz fix this?
