  • iluvcuddlesocae cae / maybe moving out (@iluvcuddlesocae) reported

    @Outlook why is it that when I use the desktop version at home, it doesn't work, but I never have a problem at my work environment - where I currently don't work so don't have access to?

  • Shark_Studios75 Shark (@Shark_Studios75) reported

    @OlixYT even @Outlook was down

  • K_P_Ganesh K P Ganesh (@K_P_Ganesh) reported

    Dear @Outlook why is there a problem with your junk mail filtering? I'm getting junk mails in my inbox and regular mails in junk. It's behaving just like @BillGates

  • Thelmassad Thelma Assad (@Thelmassad) reported

    @Outlook when are you going to fix your email?? It takes me 30 min to open it in my browser no matter what this has been happening for over TWO years and is not my computer or browser!!!

  • stevendrowe Steven D Rowe (@stevendrowe) reported

    @alexaleearndt @gmail @Outlook I notice some other people had issues a couple of days ago but it fixed itself. Gmail is syncing on my iPhone without issues. It's syncing ok via Mozilla Thunderbird email client. It's definitely an Outlook issue. I've deleted my Gmail from Outlook.

  • mattheusbs_ Matheus de Barros (@mattheusbs_) reported

    @Outlook even though I still receive notifications (not an auth problem) I can’t load them on my iPhone. Same problem on Outlook application and on Mail (apple’s app). No problem to read them on the web.

  • The1975phan1 The1975phan (@The1975phan1) reported

    @Microsoft365 @Outlook Seriously Microsoft, when are you going to fix this crap??? When I delete an email, It doesn’t need to triple check with me and pop back up. It needs to go to god damn trash!!!! I have to wait 10 seconds on each deletion cause you make it pop up 2 times after I delete them!!!!

  • GordonScottHay Scott Hay (@GordonScottHay) reported

    @Outlook Currently we have an engineer still refusing to acknowledge the sync issue, and supervisors that refuse to re-assign the case despite numerous requests.

  • nyokaphee Lizzie (@nyokaphee) reported

    @gmail @mkudwah I’m having a somewhat similar problem. My @Outlook account Isn’t receiving emails from gmail.

  • SilentUK Otter (@SilentUK) reported

    So why have @Outlook emails stopped working with the @gmail android app today? Sudden credential warnings and now an inability to validate server settings after sign in. #Android @Gmail #Outlook

  • NwandoWoman Nwando Ofokansi (@NwandoWoman) reported

    Do the people who make @Outlook use Outlook? Do they know how terrible it is?

  • ashtag529 ash leigh (@ashtag529) reported

    One day after @Microsoft shuts down #InternetExplorer we get UNDO SEND for @Outlook. This is a trade I would've made years ago. Huzzah!

  • Htbaa Christiaan Kras (@Htbaa) reported

    @Outlook If only Outlook would actually return relevant results. I can search for a name and I get tons of results where my search term isn’t actually included in. The search feature is horrible and can’t stand how slow Outlook is.

  • lea_tomar विजय तोमर~ 𝐕𝐢𝐣𝐚𝐲 𝐓𝐨𝐦𝐚𝐫 (@lea_tomar) reported

    @MicrosoftIndia @Office pls fix the problem of outlook crashes many times, I tried with your team case no.1040281036, 1040127264 but not resolve permanently, its routine in every 4-5 days crash problem. @Outlook

  • Jotabe1214 Jotabe (@Jotabe1214) reported

    @Outlook down ?

  • carashields3 CS3 1987 (@carashields3) reported

    @Outlook I was asked to re-log in and now outlook keeps logging me out and asking for security code! I have my password correct. Is there an error with the system. I can no longer send / receive emails.

  • stefanudziela oojellah (@stefanudziela) reported

    Is anyone else having issues with @Outlook for Mac not pulling down their email? I use it for Gmail, and it hasn't updated since yesterday. On latest build. Restarted Mac, no help.

  • LVAnzalone Lenny Anzalone (@LVAnzalone) reported

    Imagine spending your entire life right clicking spelling errors and then @Outlook decides to make you left click, ONLY on the web version 🙄

  • wellhat Jacob (@wellhat) reported

    This is not only bad for Teams, but it's particularly bad for it and @Outlook. Not everyone works for one organization under one account. And many organizations I've worked for use painfully annoying 2FA login processes for both!

  • DFS_9 DFSGuy (@DFS_9) reported

    @reinvention @Outlook Terrible. They can have ads in other ways.

  • Jaxidian ☁️ Shane Milton says #BlackLivesMatter (@Jaxidian) reported

    @Microsoft @Office365 @Outlook I'm having this problem in this version: Microsoft® Outlook® for Microsoft 365 MSO (Version 2204 Build 16.0.15128.20278) 64-bit

  • LTMP13 Les Trotteurs Ma Passion (@LTMP13) reported

    @Outlook Your site is down? Can't access emails since yesterday.

  • Neptune_Colt 𓃗Neptune🏳️‍⚧️🍳Middlesfur Chair🦊🐭 (@Neptune_Colt) reported

    Something is going on @discord went down for a bit this morning and now @Outlook could be a coincidence but it's very sus

  • WinnieCooper81 AlwaysWritingABrief (@WinnieCooper81) reported

    Is @Outlook not working for anyone else bc I don't need this today

  • RackEmApp RackEmApp.com (@RackEmApp) reported

    Tonight we've solved a long running issue with email delivery. If you've ever had an issue sending invites/emails to @live.co.uk, @outlook.com or @hotmail.com then you'll be pleased to know they will now work (but you will need to resend them)

  • joemama88919760 joe mama (@joemama88919760) reported

    Outlook email is down? @Outlook

  • chrissychuu Christy 🌈💖💜💙✨ (@chrissychuu) reported

    I really need to finish changing all my users and passwords so I can get rid of my @Outlook email address. I’m sick of getting emails for dentures and “squirting school.” I’m either an elderly woman or a cam girl wannabe, which is it? 💀 Worst email server in existence.

  • stevendrowe Steven D Rowe (@stevendrowe) reported

    Either @gmail #gmail is down or it stopped communicating with #MicrosoftOutlook @Outlook. Gmail works on the web fine. Oh well, can just delete it if keeps giving me pain.

  • The1975phan1 The1975phan (@The1975phan1) reported

    @Microsoft365 @Outlook Outlook is hands down the WORST program. It will destroy your small biz. You must wait 5 seconds after you delete emails as they POP RIGHT BACK UP & u have to delete again! & 1 more time to confirm deletion. Absolute disgrace. Wastes a ton of work time. Don’t get it

  • York5pur Yorkspur (@York5pur) reported

    @Outlook @MicrosoftHelps No emails for nearly 8 hours now. Any idea on when you’re going to get these issues fixed?
