    Forget "High Importance" and "Low Importance" settings for emails, @Outlook. I need people to be able to select: - You're in trouble - You're not in trouble - I'm mad at you - I'm not mad at you - (I'm secretly mad at you) when they email me.

    @Outlook it has been two and a half week since more than a thousand of our users cannot start Outlook for Android (crashes om startup). It all started after an update. Tried all kinds of (premier) support, but no solution. Is this problem being solved by development already?

    I'll sound like a broken record but we need reaction emojis to emails @Outlook please. I want them to know I agree with their emails/ thanking them without having to send an email myself (and flooding their inbox). I want people to feel acknowledged for the work they do, always

  • VeblenTweets thorestien veb-levi (@VeblenTweets) reported

    This is probably something no one cares about, but the monopoly on email by @Outlook and @gmail is an issue. I am a paying client of both companies but also host a mail server. Outlook and Gmail have completely gimped their products for any independent IT. Email is dead…
