    @Outlook hello! for the last 24 hrs, when I reply to emails from my hotmail account, I receive the email 'Remote Server returned '550 5.7.520 Message blocked because it contains content identified as spam. AS(4810)'. Do you have any advice on how to rectify this? Thanks

    @Microsoft @Outlook I keep getting emails for people other than myself!? There’s a problem! What do I need to do to get it fixed? @GovRonDeSantis for checks and balances

  • STEVEN5579 Steven Nguyen (@STEVEN5579) reported

    @Outlook I have newly bought Microsoft Office Home and Business 2019. However Outlook has error. I contacted Microsoft but not yet got reply. Too bad service from Microsoft.

    @Outlook how do I fix my account? Someone from Vietnam tried logging in to my account and now I can't fix it, nothing's working!

  • Vatzlav Vatzlav (@Vatzlav) reported

    Help! @Outlook I’m a Mac User and I can’t receive mails from one specific domain. I already access through a Windows PC and put the domain and the email addresses in the Safe Recipients list but it’s not working. Help please!!!

  • bonobochick Miss D. 📚 🎀 📺 🎬 (@bonobochick) reported

    I swear the recent @Outlook android app updates keep freezing the app so no new inbox messages to show up. 😑 Then I uninstall to reinstall, the app tells me "an error occurred" when I attempt to add my account til it connects. Very tedious to go through. Do better, @Microsoft.

    @Outlook Is Outlook Live down? I haven't gotten any emails since friday, and I'm awaiting a verification email.

  • BeadlyJames Scarface (@BeadlyJames) reported

    @Outlook is there a problem with sending emails on Android? Haven't been able to send since yesterday and states internal server error

  • am_shikhar Shikhar Anand (@am_shikhar) reported

    @Outlook I want a feature wherein I can reply (all) with a meme rather than writing down long lines to explain. #memesdaily

  • jamesliammcd James McDermott 🌈 (@jamesliammcd) reported

    Twitter... I use #Outlook/#Hotmail when I've sent emails in the last 24 hours, they bounce and I receive 'remote Server returned '550 5.7.520 Message blocked because it contains content identified as spam. AS(4810)'. Help! Any advice? @Outlook

  • DBA_Empress Mary L Cottingham (she/her) (@DBA_Empress) reported from Montgomery, New Jersey

    @FerventGeek @Outlook On the plus... I can skim down the list of required responses it identified and make sure I addressed them all. The rest is noise to me.

  • NoorienaD Nooriena Davids (@NoorienaD) reported

    @Outlook is there still a problem with the email portal?

  • wedoAzure Joe Carlyle (@wedoAzure) reported

    @thommck @Office365 @Outlook This happened to me a few weeks back, it also tied in with Outlook not working properly anymore. Had to reset. Hasn't reappeared since. iOS

  • zanders Tony Zanders (@zanders) reported

    Now that I'm down to one work email address, I'm debating whether to subscribe to a paid email app like @Superhuman. Is the time saving from shortcuts a wash when considering how much time the free @Outlook app saves me by integrating calendar availability?

  • PaulGC84 Paul C (@PaulGC84) reported

    @Outlook are you still having issues with retrieving emails from IMAP accounts? The issue seemed to be fixed albeit temporarily. Now every few hours I’m being asked by the app to login to my IMAP account? Are you able to assist with this?

  • realDotNetDave David McCarter - Available for work June 7th! (@realDotNetDave) reported

    I don't know about you, but the font in the new @Outlook search box is so small, I can barely read it! Also, the my autocomplete of email addresses is broken too. :-(

  • poetrypapi_ Ty’rone (@poetrypapi_) reported

    I love the outlook app but recently it keeps putting all important work emails in junk and prioritising foolishness like Spotify and Showcase cinema in my focused inbox. @Outlook fix up

  • DaniChirinosP Daniela Chirinos P. (@DaniChirinosP) reported

    @Microsoft365 @Outlook Hi there :) is there something wrong with your server? Cant seem to attach a file to my emails

  • Pxtl Martin Zarate (@Pxtl) reported

    Hey @Outlook , traditionally the way to let a user know that they're no longer sending/receiving email is to put up an error box or something, not just "need password" in the status bar. Like, if I'm sending an email, I expect it to send. If it's gonna sit in outbox, tell me.

  • Jak0b_S Jakob Schaefer (@Jak0b_S) reported

    Hey @Outlook Team and @MicrosoftHelps , now my tickets are closed the third time without any communication. How could this be possible, and how should I resolve my issue now?

    @Microsoft365 @Outlook Is outlook down?

  • lofiNPRbeats Huge Fan of Cancel Culture (@lofiNPRbeats) reported

    @Outlook - whatever ******** you just did with that update, fix it

  • rubberscotty rubberscotty (@rubberscotty) reported

    @JRubberCub @instagram @Outlook Liking this for support! Sounds terrible

  • SafraAnver Safra Anver (@SafraAnver) reported

    @Dhivaagar @gmail @Outlook I find managing emails, tasks to do very messy on it. Sometimes emails go missing too or hidden which is annoying. I don't know if it's a 365 issue. On Gmail it's so easy to find whatever you need.

  • RyanCartiers RyanCartier (@RyanCartiers) reported from Calgary, Alberta

    @Microsoft365 I called #customersupport and they said they cannot help with the app, use @outlook support – who is incapable of finding the ticket, doesn’t address the problem, repeats the same questions over despite the answer already being provided - and then asks me how they did.

  • reesey333 Laressa Nordgren (@reesey333) reported

    @Outlook can you tell me why all of my junk emails are gone? This is not good as often I have at least 20% of my real emails going to my junk folder. They are nowhere. Please fix this because often when I sign up for something new the verification code goes straight to junk!

  • prof_goldberg Daniel Goldberg (@prof_goldberg) reported

    Come on @Outlook -- new Outlook for Mac has been out for a WHILE now. It's way past time y'all re-integrated basic Tasks back in to the program. I don't want to install and use a new app ("To-Do"). Fix it.

  • albilaga Albilaga (@albilaga) reported

    @ProtonMail bridge not working in new @Outlook for mac?

  • EmmaBurlow Emma Burlow (@EmmaBurlow) reported

    IT Tweeps... when typing fast into outlook email I regularly get a glitch where outlook stops to set up a calendar invite. I'm guessing it's a shortcut or synch issue, but Google can't help, any ideas? #Outlook @MicrosoftHelps @Outlook
