    @Outlook I'd like to report a problem with my password. I successfully changed it, but within 24 hours the system asked me to enter it again and said it was incorrect, even though I was entering the newly updated password.

  • withShay_ Shay (@withShay_) reported

    When will you fix your spam filters once and for all? Hundreds of spam emails keep appearing in my inbox, it’s ridiculous!! No matter how many times to block and report them more appear @Outlook @Microsoft it’s unacceptable. FIX. THE. ISSUE. It’s been over a week and no solution.

  • SimonHolman Simon Holman (@SimonHolman) reported

    @Outlook I know you want everyone paying for Office365, but do you really need to make configuring IMAP accounts so difficult. Just give the option to specify the servers without just assuming them. I shouldn't have to go into Control Panel to fix it!

  • PaulClayton1977 Paul Clayton. Happily woke. Eye rolling daily. (@PaulClayton1977) reported

    @Outlook Can you please confirm how widespread the issues are logging into Outlook, as from this morning I am unable to log in and I know others in the same position.

    Outlook keeps asking me to sign in again and to create a passkey. I downloaded Microsoft Authenticator for this, but it no longer works. Now it forces me to create a passkey, and at the end I get an error saying the passkey couldn’t be created. @Microsoft @Outlook

  • elSenorPluto Ripe Plantain™ (@elSenorPluto) reported

    @Outlook Why is there no unified inbox in the new outlook on Windows? This is one of the cons of mega corps. If MS was a small start-up, this issue we have being raging on for the past 2 yrs would have been solved under 2 weeks. You disabled a working app and forced dogshit on us
