    @wsbeck @Outlook Try opening a new incognito / private browser window and log onto Hotmail there. Does that help? I think that Hotmail has a cookie incompatibility issue.

    @Outlook why can’t my messages be displayed right now on my pc? You suggest I check my internet connection and try again later. I just opened it on my phone, sent it GMail and had no trouble reading the email. Should I just abandon outlook for my personal email?

  • clevybencheton C. LÉVY-BENCHETON (@clevybencheton) reported

    @embedded_iot @Outlook Unfortunately I lost the emails on the server too. Fortunately they weren't so important.

    @Outlook Why haven't I been able to load my messages for the last few hours. I haven't been able to see my new messages, and even my Inbox pinned ones are not fully showing. And, I can't even view Junk mail or send messages. No error messages just no function.

    @PlaidPhantom @Outlook I looked at this a bit and can't come up with a theory as to how this could happen. Any interesting display settings? If not, please select Contact Support from the Help menu, report the issue there, and let me know when that's done so that I can take a closer look.

  • ifrha3 Ifrha (@ifrha3) reported

  • tinsleyjim Jim Tinsley (@tinsleyjim) reported

    @Microsoft work from home does not work for your employees. All of your products that I use have gone to crap during work from home. They need direct oversight. @Outlook is particularly terrible these days.

  • diasporicmover neen (@diasporicmover) reported

    @Outlook My Outlook email isn't working properly for the past couple of days. When I try to view 'other' mail I get a error message that says "Your request can't be completed right now" and gives me the option to 'Retry' which doesn't actually do anything... Any answers?

  • ifrha3 Ifrha (@ifrha3) reported

    @MNM_Gunner @Twitter @Outlook Just trying that now. My emails on my phone are coming through slow tbh. I usually have tons by this time. And on desktop it won't load my sent section. I need them both to work. 😩

  • wsbeck wendy beck (@wsbeck) reported

    @Outlook My email is down. Can you tell me if this is a system-wide failure and when it may be back up? Thanks. #HotmailDown #OutlookDown.

  • LCCK4ever Cathleen K. (@LCCK4ever) reported

    @Outlook @NederlandNatuur Can you check your messages as well??? You keep saying message you, but there's no response to the messages are being sent about the problem.
