    @Outlook I've tried those things, that's the problem, it's not working, I need someone to actually help me!

  • alisdairmor Bob McAllister (@alisdairmor) reported

    Why is Microsoft @Outlook apparently unable to block the flow of junk phishing via the threat to close an unverified(sic) account? I had hoped that ML would kick-in after fifty block and/or report actions. It seems the "learning" is very slow, or could it be deliberate neglect?

  • paul_schramm Paul Schramm (@paul_schramm) reported

    Hey @Microsoft , why can't you fix @Outlook so that when you print a month it displays a small last and next month? I don't need a small version of the current month.

  • RefugeeNik Nikos 🇨🇾🇬🇷🇬🇧 (@RefugeeNik) reported

    People having problem signing upto #GETTR using @Yahoo and @Outlook email addresses, It seems that Yahoo and Microsoft are blocking the sign up verification emails. If you use @ProtonMail then the sign up email comes straight through.

  • indranil_pawar Indranil Pawar (@indranil_pawar) reported

    @Outlook Thanks David. But I am in big trouble. Not able to recollect my PST password. Got some very important official emails there. Third party softwares are available but not trustworthy. Learnt my lesson the hard way. Thanks for reaching out.

    Looking forward to some evening email catch up and work. Not if @Outlook @Microsoft have anything to do with it! Attempted to get code to a Yahoo email address for login: "We couldn't send the code. Please try again." - and again, and again, and again...

  • nairpranavs Pranav Nair (@nairpranavs) reported

    @Outlook It is so annoying to find out that search in Outlook for mac 2019 is nt workng. Tried evrythng gvn in the support page still no luck. Is it really a spotlight issue? When downgrading to 2016 it's workng fine. Evn in 365 got the same issue. Kindly release a stable update.

  • MohgaKamalYanni Mohga Kamal-Yanni (@MohgaKamalYanni) reported

    When will @Microsoft allow : 1- stopping of junking valid e mails. I did everything Microsoft n the community says but in vein 2.changing the terrible glaring white background of @Outlook I am punished for complaining about the good old Lotus Notes

  • crusty_bits crug.art (@crusty_bits) reported

    @Microsoft365 @Outlook My least favourite is when I get my account verified so i can login, change the password and my contact info as prompted. Then it tells me i will be able to log in. Then keeps insisting on me using a code and trying to use my old contact details that I’ve already said i dont have

  • kfsone Oliver Smith 💉💉 (@kfsone) reported

    Dear @outlook team, have any of you ever tried getting support for not being able to add an imap account on the android device? First, you have to answer the question: "Can't connect to my imap server" which gets you a wall of angsty text telling you it's your fault.

  • nigelonius ηιgєℓonius (@nigelonius) reported

    @Microsoft had a very nice #Pride theme in the @Outlook app which now seems to have gone through an update (to fix bugs would be the description). I don’t know why these corporations are very into performative activism.

  • manelrodero Manel Rodero (@manelrodero) reported

    @Outlook Thanks for answering. The problem was solved after a few hours.

  • traustitj traustitj (@traustitj) reported

    .Mac email account on Android using Outlook is so much pain in the butt. I just don't know if the problem is with Apple or Microsoft and who to quit using. It seems like Outlook for android just forgets my password at random times. How to fix this? @AppleSupport @Outlook. Help

  • MarkusWerle So-called Artist 㡹 (@MarkusWerle) reported

    I opened a folder with 3600 emails and used the context menu "mark all as unread" and @Outlook started to run berserk on one of my 8 CPU cores and making massive I/O rendering the computer unusable. I think this software has a design problem.

  • XmasTeddy90 Teddy (@XmasTeddy90) reported

    It seems like @Outlook is down Is that right?

  • aimeelangham Mrs Aimee Langham (@aimeelangham) reported

  • IDevsunny Dev Sunny (@IDevsunny) reported

    @Outlook Dear Team, I am unable to login my mail account. Please help me.

  • Jordan_Penty Jordan Penty (@Jordan_Penty) reported

    @Outlook @Microsoft your support service really needs an upgrade, ignored numerous times and completely unhelpful. Problem still unresolved.
