    @Outlook @Microsoft My outlook Email has been messed up by Microsoft. It developed persistent login problems, kept bombarding me with product adverts and freezing instead of logging me in. It forced me to change my password, now it wont accept either the old or new password.

    @Outlook So while my email password issue continues with the account you all took over, I decided to log into my substack which uses an email I made specifically for social media use. Guess what? That password didn't work either. Strange?

    Hey @Microsoft @Outlook I need help, someone logged in my old email account, I lost that phone number so there’s no way to recover it, I tried everything, but it’s not working and someone now added my old account to authenticator app, I need help please, I can provide all info.

    @Outlook Why remove Send Availability from the mobile app? It was one of the most useful features for scheduling on the go. Now the calendar button only creates events, and checking free times requires minimizing the draft or saving it just to switch tabs. Proposing 3–5 options has become a slow back-and-forth process.

    My live/microsoft userid/email is in some leaked hack db and now I keep getting these Authenticator requests every few hours by someone trying to access my account. @Microsoft @Outlook @MicrosoftHelps is there a way to geofence my account and lock all access attempts from other countries. This can’t be just a problem unique to me
