    @Outlook Email Templates in Outlook on the Web (PWA) seem to be broken. Changes do not get reflected when creating new emails using the template

    @Outlook Can I check that this is actually being taken seriously @Outlook as no one has responded to my DM which you requested 2 days ago. Just to clarify I cannot access my emails as your automated recovery process is not working for me and your supporting teams are refusing to help.

    Had to finally upgrade from "Legacy" @Microsoft @Outlook on a Mac to "new" Outlook (because old Outlook kept crashing my computer due to what I must assume was a massive a memory leak) Just miserable. Stupid, basic stuff still broken or mission. Formatting of signatures is totally messed up. Can't turn on/off hidden paragraph markers when editing email. Can no longer click within an email to see the conversation or related emails (this is a huge loss). This product has been out since 2020. It has been the default email client since 2022. HOW CAN IT STILL BE THIS BAD!?! Or do they just hate Mac users that much?

    Gmail search doesn't work. Outlook is far better and if it's not working, you Exchange administrator is doing a bad job. —Current unhappy @Gmail user and former Exchange administrator and intensive @Outlook user.

    @Microsoft @Outlook Why can't you get your ToDo lists to share without any problems. You are a multi-billion dollar corporation that can't fix $2 problems. #Microsoft

    @Outlook the Outlook password recovery system is not working for me. It keeps kicking me out. Can I speak with somebody or can somebody please help me? I’ve been spending two weeks trying to get my email back.

    @Outlook I’m a sole global admin fully locked out of my business account. The phone number allocated to my case has issues receiving calls. I desperately need this sorted so I can work. Is there anything more I can do, at the very least to change the phone number?

    @Microsoft @Outlook What's the point in sending 'Feedback' using the "Feedback Hub" if there are no answers and things don't get addressed? Myself and others have reported exploit issues in Outlook and other apps... and nothing... silence...

    Hey @Outlook I can’t change my password because I can’t change my phone number. How do I fix this so I don’t lose my email address? I’ve been trying for a solid month with not one thing working and everything I do try you deny saying not enough information to grant me access!

    .@Yahoo @YahooCare Yahoo has taken over my @Outlook email for my Yahoo and domain email address and my computer guy can't fix it, except to direct me to web mail. He doesn't believe upgrading to Windows 11 will fix this. Please suggest a fix. Thank you.

    @MicrosoftHelps @Outlook stop trying to cram your AI mess called CoPilot down our throats. You need to make a way to PERMANENTLY turn it off across all platforms and devices.

    @Outlook I need my Outlook mailbox restored to a date before April 6. This was NOT deletion — the attacker overwrote the body of multiple emails. I urgently need this escalated to the engineering team before the server snapshots expire.

    @Microsoft @Office @Outlook Why does Outlook for Mac always have non-stop issues? Why is my desktop app unable to Sync or connect for hours, sometimes even the entire day, multiple times per month? There's some MAJOR issues inside Outlook for Mac OS and it's not just mine.
