    Er, @Outlook isn't letting me send any emails, I keep getting an error message: 'We've noticed some unusual activity in your Outlook account. To help protect you, we've temporarily blocked it. Please verify your account' but the link to verify isn't working. Anyone else had this?

  • ComplianceClar1 ComplianceClarity (@ComplianceClar1) reported

    @RMGirlUK @Outlook Most pointless feature out as those that have already read it have read it. The best feature anyone can enable is the delay sending by x minutes feature .. opt for 2... then all sit in your outbox until then .. send errors.. nail the offending item and delete it ... tidy..

  • SaiNWrites Sai Nukala⚡️ (@SaiNWrites) reported

    @Microsoft Please simplify the @Outlook icons and User Interface. It is so slow, lag and inbox conversation mode is horrible.

  • simplex_fx Balázs Simplex Óvári (@simplex_fx) reported

    Dear @Outlook Could you please NOT suck, with multi acc+VPN? Annoying that if I'm not connected to corp vpn/exchange server, I couldn't set rules for other acc. If using multiple profiles, I don't get my calendar notif, and stuff from the offline company acc.

  • bcrogs Bcrogs (@bcrogs) reported

    @Office Why did the update change the way I get emails? The new email is down at the bottom? And then after I read it the email disappears from@my inbox? I have threads unchecked. What happened??? IOS16.02. Latest Mobile Outlook update. @Outlook

  • ComplaintBox12 Complaint Box (@ComplaintBox12) reported

    @Outlook Is there any ongoing issue with outlook app crashing on iPhone SE with iOS 16.2? Observed on couple of devices now.

  • arielanderson_ Ariel Anderson (@arielanderson_) reported

    @Outlook hey bestie, can you guys fix the search function? It’s killing me at work. I have emails that I know are in my inbox but no matter the search terms, it won’t bring them up. This has been a problem for a long time. I am begging.

  • 5PriscillaKing Priscilla King (@5PriscillaKing) reported

    I think the problem is that @Outlook relies on smear-and-click rather than having clear, precise keyboard commands. That itsy-bitsy slider next to the nasty grabby ad panel? Duh.

  • leonlalieu Léon Lalieu (@leonlalieu) reported

    @Outlook for iOS keeps on crashing after update. Reinstall of the app doesn’t solve the problem. @Outlook when is a fix expected?

  • mlande2 Mike L (@mlande2) reported

    I don’t know what the hell is going on, but @Outlook just aren’t picking up junk at the moment. I’ve gone from getting 1 junk mail in my inbox per week, to 20 a day. The junk filter is barely catching a thing. Is anyone else having this issue at the moment? #hotmail

  • kevfquinn Kevin F. Quinn 🌻 (@kevfquinn) reported

    Lol - just had junk email from 'moneysaver@outlook' - when trying to add to junk senders, @Outlook throws an error saying that email address is invalid. So folks, if you want to evade Outlook's junk filter...

  • CumFelixe felixe *** (@CumFelixe) reported

    @Outlook hello, i can't login to the e-mail I am using. The problem I got while doing it was that such an account could not be found. When I try to set up a new account with the same mail, it says there is already such an account. Could you help

    2 weeks now I'm TS'ing user issues on @windows10ent 21H2, @MicrosoftTeams asks for auth which fails, then @Outlook disconnects from EX and will not reconnect. I've repaired MS365 apps for E, reinstalled, replaced machines etc.. reboot works short time then recurrs. Any one else?
