  • cabbagesofdoom Richard Edwards (@cabbagesofdoom) reported

    @phatmattbaker @Outlook Ah, is this when you reply to your own reply in a “conversation”? I think “reply-all” gets round the issue. (But it is annoying! Don’t call it a conversation if I can reply to just myself!)

  • biochem_bri Brianna Bibel (@biochem_bri) reported

    Anyone else have a problem where @Outlook desktop (for @Apple) keeps making you open a browser window to sign into your @gmail account? So you do, & it prompts you again when you're still signing in in the browser? And then again? And again? And again? How do I make it stop? Thx

  • DesignByClaireB Claire Barnett (@DesignByClaireB) reported

    @Outlook can you please move the read/unread, delete/ flags back to the left or give option to choose position in webmail. It’s so impractical on a 27” screen - genuine usability issues

  • phanT1975 DSG03 (@phanT1975) reported

    @Outlook WHY please someone at Microsoft tell me WHY when I am deleting emails… why does the email pop back up and make me delete it again, then it pops up again and says “trash” and I have to delete it again. It takes a long time just to delete an email and move on. Outlook is terrible

  • omkar_thoughts_ Omkar Khilari (@omkar_thoughts_) reported

    I never seen @Apple mail app sending me notifications, It works terrible. Then I started using @Outlook like daily driver and suddenly apple mail started behaving like the most sincere app in my phone. Can someone explain?

  • cabbagesofdoom Richard Edwards (@cabbagesofdoom) reported

    @phatmattbaker @Outlook I have a similar problem with the new “silent draft save” feature if you look at another email before hitting send. Keep finding I sent emails that I thought I’d sent!

  • thedunnegroup Dunne Search Group (@thedunnegroup) reported

    @Outlook Does anybody else have this issue with Outlook? When I am on my phone and looking for a email sent to me… Why does it pull up every sent message instead? It takes me a very long time to find the email. Why does it not show incoming messages only?

  • MikeWeldon17 Mike Weldon (@MikeWeldon17) reported

    @Outlook day five no fix in the works by outlook wow I not sure I can by windows anymore

  • thedunnegroup Dunne Search Group (@thedunnegroup) reported

    @Outlook Unreal. I was on with the outlook person and when they disconnected from me, they did not even call me back. The outlook problems continue and our businesses will suffer due to the errors of this awful software that I paid for. Microsoft needs to go away. I am done.

  • narcellie Narcellie (@narcellie) reported

    @Outlook Wish I could see mine, just submitted me fourth attempt at sending you my information in hopes of getting my email address back. I have my correct login info, am on my same devices, but you bumped me off when I got to Japan and the mobile is my old one.

  • SalunkeRahul_in rahul salunke (@SalunkeRahul_in) reported

    @Outlook is thr issue today with ms outlook in india?

  • stijnhommes Stijn Hommes (@stijnhommes) reported

    @Microsoft, please fix One @Outlook before it is too late. We need the web version to look like the desktop app, not the other way around. Don't make Outlook a collaboration app instead of a mail client. It needs to effectively manage mail. Anything else should be a side note.

  • FollowOCD Oscar Creative Digital (@FollowOCD) reported

    I lost all my old family photos and artwork when #Hotmail migrated to @Outlook and have still not received help in getting those memories back. Anyone else have a similar issue?
