🚀K.R.I.S. (@KrisWorkLife) reportedOops! Just realized that @Outlook doesn’t give you an option to choose a time zone for scheduled messages. What a bummer. @Microsoft please fix or add this option. 🚀

Rahul Ratan (@Cipher_Manic) reported@Outlook Is there any outage? Suddenly, all incoming & outgoing emails stopped, neither were there any mail demons errors #OutlookOutage #MicrosoftOutlook ?
-
José Rafael Gabaldón (@Gabalzac) reported@peteryanni @Outlook Agree. Terrible decision by @Outlook
-
Kareem (@Kareem1702) reported@KyleDavey86 @Outlook @KyleDavey86 Were you able to fix this? I had the exact same issue with the robot and now I can’t even get that far anymore
-
Oktay (@OktayAykut1) reported@MicrosoftHelps @Microsoft @Outlook Update: I finally managed to recover my account. I had to install the Outlook app on iOS and go through the “forgot password” process there. Somehow the verification (robot test) worked there, and I was finally able to reset my password. This just shows how broken the system is — the same process didn’t work anywhere else. Also, Microsoft’s support is even worse than the system itself. No real help, no human support, just useless automated responses. This experience was extremely frustrating.

alli. (@lovemesomeALLI) reportednow I am locked out of my email account due to 'too many attempts' because of YOUR OUTAGE, an endless loop day 3 and I have to wait 24 to 48 hours to hopefully get my account recovered. Unreal @Microsoft @Outlook DO BETTER!
-

LaubeQ (@LaubeQ28) reportedHey @Outlook we use you for work and all my colleagues and I run into this very annoying bug where you will reply to someone, it stops the typing cursor as if you clicked away and when you press space it will archive the e-mail chain. Can you please fix ASAP? thanks.
-
Finchwizard (@Finchwizard) reportedWe’re in 2026 and @Outlook still can’t fix notifications and badges on iOS. It’s NEVER RIGHT. Always get these mystery notifications. Telling me 2 new emails and there’s only 1. Most frustrating thing. #outlooksucks
