    It constantly amazes me how terrible @Outlook remains to be. It is just baffling how bad the UX is and how utterly inconsistent it is. I would actually be shocked if those working on it actually use it, because how could they immediately not see all of the glaring issues????

  • asiasluxelife MARS (@asiasluxelife) reported

    @Outlook when I block someone I don’t want it to go to my junk folder. I want all further emails from them to be blocked and unable to reach me. That’s the point of blocking an email address! U guys are fixing everything but the basic functions that are clearly an issue.

  • UrBoi_Rome95 Christopher Romero (@UrBoi_Rome95) reported

    @Outlook are your servers down I can’t get in my email . I need to get in my email.

  • tazorack Taz 泰秀樂 (@tazorack) reported

    @Outlook new outlook desktop program is trash please fix. Cannot even do basic things. Told @Microsoft many times it's been years at this point and still no fix.

  • rxjohnnyrx John (@rxjohnnyrx) reported

    @Outlook I'm giving up using Outlook email due to issues with IMAP in email clients, which only happen in Outlook. It seems that you really want to imprison the user in your services.

  • mrks91 Marcos Espinoza (@mrks91) reported

    So, to login to my @Outlook I’m required to verify my identity using another email. They refuse to send a txt to my phone or let me use my password. Make it make sense

    @Outlook please for the love of God, fix your spam filters for Hotmail for ***** sake!. 100 spam emails every twenty minutes is insane!. Blocking and reporting as Phishing doesn’t work!. Both my inbox & spam fodder are constantly getting slammed, Jesus Christ do something!.
