    Hey @Outlook what's going on with the exchange server?

  • krubenok Kyle Rubenok (@krubenok) reported

    @ChristosMatskas @Outlook As soon as you sign in with a single premium M365 account (business or personal) the ads go away.

  • lucyjadebuglass Lucy Buglass (@lucyjadebuglass) reported

    @Outlook Hi, I'm having issues with my emails as I'm not receiving any new ones via desktop but they're coming through without any problems on my phone app. Any idea how to fix this? Thank you!

  • t_woelfer thomas woelfer 🇪🇺 (@t_woelfer) reported

    @Outlook "This is a known issue with IMAP accounts. The change (read state) needs to sync with the server before you can move it, which only takes a split second, but outlook keeps a hold on the message until you switch messages." 4 years ago. Not fixed yet. But thanks for the answer.

    Well @Outlook we are making slow but sure progress I guess. Upgraded to 2019 and now no more beach-ball pauses, but the outbox gets flustered and likes to complain for hours about not being able to send. Checked around, this is happening to a lot of people.

  • MichelleSomenek CK National Recruiting (@MichelleSomenek) reported

    @Outlook at 10amCST my email glitched and is not working. When I compose a new email it is tracking all changes as I type and the top bar is gray. I am unable to change font, make bullet points, etc. My emails look VERY unprofessional.

  • jeronevw 🤓🇳🇱 (@jeronevw) reported

    @ChristosMatskas @jfversluis @Outlook So, the tracking is clearly not working then.

  • ShayON_FGC Shay Farsi (@ShayON_FGC) reported

    @Outlook is the worst Mail service that i have ever seen. They locked my mail for literally no reason and when I tried to unlock it, they send a code to my number that never came and have to WAIT 24 HOURS just to try it again! Oh and talking to support only possible via sign in!

  • mehngifeminist Meowngi Feminist (@mehngifeminist) reported

    People at @Outlook, who do I have to pay to be taken to the Sign In page instead of You have been Signed Out Page, everytime I open Outlook?

  • veryposhpuppy Allison Jones (@veryposhpuppy) reported

    @HelenDownham @Outlook @microsoft said it was a widespread problem and they were working on. Been happening to me for over a week

  • karen24uk Karen (@karen24uk) reported

    @Outlook We have had no outlook emails since yesterday. Is there a national problem is it just us? #MicrosoftOutlook

  • jonluci121 Jon (@jonluci121) reported

    @Microsoft @Outlook I am unable to login into my account for which I had setup 2 factor ms auth. I recently formatted my phone and forgot to take the backup. It doesn't show any other way to recover the account! Can you please help?

  • frostbitten Matthew Seremet (@frostbitten) reported

    Doing some googling it seems a lot of people have trouble sending simple emails to their friends and family on #hotmail (@Outlook). It'd be okay if hotmail would report back that it wasn't delivered, but it doesn't. It's a void.

  • Poojashah08 Pooja Shah (@Poojashah08) reported

    @Outlook so everytime I've tried to send an email with an attachment today i receive a message dating the recipient rejected my email which isn't true. How can I fix this?

  • mattang Mat Ong* (@mattang) reported

    @Outlook when are you going to fix the outlook issues with windows 11? It’s ridiculous that i can’t search recent emails as the index is broken. what am i paying for?
