2) Set Outlook to only go to the server periodically so you don’t get distracted. Control the inflow. 3) If you’ve got work to do, turn off @Outlook You don’t need it there, staring at you. Close it. 3/n

@Outlook Hi there, for weeks now my Hotmail and Outlook accounts on your iOS app prompt me to re-login every few days. It’s infuriating and it doesn’t happen with my Gmail acct also running through the Outlook app. What’s happening and when will it be fixed?

Testing @Outlook with its own password disables @Skype with different password. WTF @Microsoft. Same unified, less secure **** as Google did with forcing across the board login and tracking? I guess one of the apps has to go again.

@Outlook Are you going to fix your Junk mail algorithms one day, or would you rather have us all switch to Gmail ? For Christ sake, even emails from Microsoft go to Junk 🤬

Hi @MsftEnable, Trying to enroll a couple machines into the Windows Insider Program. If I try to sign into the program under settings using my @outlook.com microsoft account, I receive the "You Can't Sign In Here With A Personal Account." message. Any idea why? Thanks.

@wombel @Outlook @Microsoft365 We’re continuing to rollout IMAP in our Beta Channel (formerly Insider Fast), increasing rollout % this week if you haven’t received it yet. Depending on feedback in Beta Channel, we’ll evaluate rolling out in Current Channel (Preview) (formerly Insider Slow) next

@Outlook I cannot read and receive email for 3 months now on my mobile apple devices and android tablet. Since 2 weeks I even cannot add email addresses anymore. Everytime I am asked to be ‘patient, issue is known and will be solved and I have to wait for new updates’. Pffff incredible

@Outlook Wrap your iPhone badge notifications and fix them for them to update badge number without having to open the app (for ex. when you use quick-3D touch actions for archive, delete, etc)

@GJPvWesten @Outlook I think this is also partly due to the university's policy however; as much as i like to poop on microsoft sometimes, i think there are some things in place that specifically make synchronizing things hard in one way or the other, creating issues like these.

Hey @Outlook and @Microsoft, rest of the world (outside of USA) would achieve more, if you'll fix week numbering in Outlook App (at least in Android) to comply with ISO8601 numbering. We are now missing week 53 completely. 2021 will be difficult, because -1 week offset...

@BradPrick @Outlook This is a known bug. Go to settings, help & feedback, then collect diagnostics. For whatever reason, this resets the badge/notification issue. From then on you should be able to get badge notifications without having the open the app. Good luck.

Does anyone use @outlook on iOS to connect to a plain IMAP mail server? Its IMAP support seems utterly and completely broken. Perhaps the only testing done for Outlook on iOS is with Exchange servers, leaving those of us using plain IMAP stuck with the default iOS mail app.
