I can't figure out that when I check me email on PC, some emails appear for a milisecond then are gone. I don't have any rules or filters that I can find. Anyone have a fix for this?

Duplicate emails can result from rule conflicts or using the import / export functions or server errors or upload conflicts.

Is there a free way to bulk identify and list duplicate emails, review and then delete?

Open source, Github, VBA macro; etc?

Signed in to Hotmail.com account. No way to select any e-mail in any folder; clicking the empty space where it should be simply opens the e-mail.

Selected Help from the toolbar, Help again in yet another toolbar, went thru thru the pointless steps on the slide-out, entered 'checkboxes' and -- OMG -- they didn't have a preset solution for 'checkboxes not displayed'!! So I clicked Still Need Help? Yes. Of course then they want me to "Sign in to see support options." ... Am I not already signed in, looking at my e-mail?? How did I click Help and get the slide-out, then that I still needed help?

So I click the sign-in button, and yet another thing pops up on the other side of the screen, asking that I sign in, complete with a 'We found an account you can use here' with the account that I'm signed in on listed. I click it, the pop-up window goes white, then closes.

...

That's it. It doesn't re-sign me in, open another window with other options, the slide-out is still open, still only telling me to sign in, etc. Doing so again only repeats the process of getting no help, no support, no solutions.

Can you guess that I'm looking to close this account and all my others (which do have checkboxes) as this is typical of dealing with MS? I already closed all my Skydrive accounts, one of which, I saw today, MS had graciously reopened, signed me up, without my having to do a thing, including giving permission. Aww; so, so, so sweet. I imagine they're going to also help me by copying any e-mail attachment I receive or send to it for public viewing.

I decided to see if Outlook at reimplemented Unified inbox, after removing it on New Outlook. I was surprised when I downloaded the app, signed in and saw "All Accounts", the way it looks on the iOS app.

Today I opened the app and saw it immediately vanish. So I went down the rabbit hole and found the Help > Go to Classic Outlook button, I downloaded it and it's asking me for a subscription.

MS knows people prefer Classic and are trying to capitalize on it.

Apparently there are plans to rollout unified inbox or something similar to the new Outlook but its a "slow" roll-out.

I am going to continue to use Mozilla's Thunderbird as are many others.

Microsoft continues to be a joke and seems to be leaning into it, no wonder they love their new, Widely adopted Microslop name.

I am not an idiot, I have tried multiple ways to try to get my Comcast account and Outlook synced up. First it was just a constant sign up, now it's just not even working at all. My other comcast account works fine and no problems. But the one I use for all my personal emails and is even the account I have as my mS account as well just doesn't work anymore. So this has gotten ridiculous and I am just going to bypass outlook altogether. Two huge companies and their email systems can't work together because someone added another layer somewhere. I am done being the repairman and manager working on these things when it was supposed to help save time instead of eating it.

I had a few emails about unusual logins so to make my account more secure I had to provide some information. This included stuff like recently sent emails and the last Passwords I used and some other things. I sent it off and they wrote back and said it wasn’t enough information so now my account has been completely blocked. I’ve tried to enter another form but I haven’t heard anything. How do you get round this?

I received that my client would like to recall a message “ reply to my email” and then after that I received another email from him replying
Do you receive the recall notification first and then the email that was recalled?

Hey, just reported the most obvious phishing scam ever that somehow made it past all filters. It was an "Amazon" "problem with your payment" whatever BS email complete with misspelled words and a fake name with random characters. I did not open this email. I selected it and went to report. When I clicked the "Report" button in the Outlook interface, it said "Report and Unsubscribe." There was no other option. I said yes. Outlook then automatically OPENED the email and OPENED A LINK in the email which took me to a some bullshit website, presumably meant to help me unsubscribe. I am in genuine shock. In what fucking world is that okay to do? When would I ever want to open a link an email I'm reporting as a phishing scam? Jesus christ.

So im a gamer and a few years back i hated how my mums email and name displayed under MY profile so i got into all her email renamed it from clancychicken@hotmail.com to medicalmango22209@outlook.com. The expectation was simply renaming the email would reroute all connections to the “new” email. But it hasn’t. Accounts with details, personal info, bank details, purchases and pictures are all connected to an email that doesn’t exist and trying to change the connected email prompts a “verification code sent to [non existent email]”. I would imagine you can see the problem and extreme worry/frustration. Both EA support and microsoft under outlook (what the hell happened to hotmail) have been useless AI bots trying to assist what i would consider an advanced technical issue. I just want to speak to a human and get my stuff back. I deleted the original alias and tried reverting it but hotmail i believe doesn’t exist anymore. All phone numbers and alternative emails have been lost or scratched so that isn’t an option either

Basically i want into my old EA account connected to an old email; renamed to a new email that didn’t transfer any registries.

Hey,

case: I flag a mail for follow up.
After a short time, the follow up flag disappears.

We use Outlook classic with M365

What can be the reason?

I recently got a new email, and set my old outlook email up to forward all mail to my new account. it’s working well although i have stopped receiving email completely from certain companies such as Oura ring, Poshmark, and a few others. it’s really frustrating because some of the emails contain login codes, etc. i literally have had to file help tickets on each of the websites in order to receive their mail again, and most have responded that it’s an issue on Outlook’s end. does anyone know how to fix his or if there is some setting i need to change?

.... it gets the phone numbers and position title correct and STILL PUTS EVERYTHING ELSE IN NOTES. JFC get your shit together already.

Alguém sabe por que o outlook na parte de contatos recomendados aparece e-mails que eu nunca mandei nada?
Emails tipo: phishing40bb5da11@outlook.com

I’m so pissed please help

Hello everyone, I was trying to send an email to two org emails but then postmaster told me after sending the emails that only one receiver gave an error. My question is as follows: does the other recipient still receive my email even though one gave an error?

Thank in advance.

Before, I used to only get around 1~10 spam emails per day.

But after reporting various spam emails as 'Phishing,' I'm now getting double or triple the amount of spam emails compared to before reporting (e.g. 30+ spam emails per day).

Did I do something wrong with using 'Report phishing' function from Outlook? Is there a way to mitigate this spam email issue?

Is there anyway to default to the classic outlook. Each time I restart my laptop after an update it reverts back to the new outlook and then I have to toggle it off and provide reasons I want to revert back.

It's Monday and I'm still trying to chat with a human agent from Microsoft Support. Guys, please. I don't want to chat with the BOT! HE DOESN'T HELP ME!

My account is blocked. It is not connected to cellphone, it doesn't have the back up account, I sent the ACSR forms 5 times no response!

Please. I don't know what to do!!! I already tried with the authenticator, the sign in helper, the bot helper. I need to access my freaking Mail. Edit: I also posted in Microsoft learn, went to contact us Microsoft. Contact Microsoft helps in Twitter/X. Everywhere really. Microsoft learn is a forum where users help users, nothing new sadly 😔 Edit 2: I did got in contact with a HUMAN. My god some people weren't loved by their mothers, there is no other explanation. I will wait for the ACSR form answer I guess. My heart is broken.

In OutlookWeb you can choose if to send (or, well, compose) messages as HTML or text. It's controllable from the toolbar under Options \ Format.

But when sending HTML, the raw email includes only HTML and not the customary HTML + plaintext alternative.

Is there a way to configure it to send both formats? (MIME's multipart/alternative.)

Hey guys, is anyone else having issues receiving emails on Outlook? Could it be related to an update or something on Microsoft's side?

I've selected all emails for deletion and cannot for the life of me find the button to delete. Anyone else?

Hi folks,

Imagine I manage 50 clients, each with a folder structure like this:

Client 1
├── Negotiations
├── Contracts
├── Newsletters
└── Active Projects
    ├── Project 1
    │   ├── Phase 1
    │   │   ├── Subcontractor 1
    │   │   └── Subcontractor 2
    │   └── Phase 2
    └── Project 2

Client 2
├── Negotiations
├── Contracts
├── Newsletters
└── Active Projects
    ├── Project 1
    │   ├── Phase 1
    │   │   ├── Subcontractor 1
    │   │   └── Subcontractor 2
    │   └── Phase 2
    └── Project 2

...and so on for all 50 clients, each with multiple projects, phases, and subcontractors.

When I right-click an email, select Move, and search for the “Newsletters” folder, Outlook lists all 50 folders with the same name without showing their parent folders. This makes it difficult to identify the correct destination and increases the risk of moving emails to the wrong client’s folder.

Gmail seems to handle this kind of organization more intuitively.

Is there a way to make Outlook display the full folder path (e.g., Client 1 > Newsletters) in the Move menu, or otherwise make it easier to distinguish between identically named folders?

I’d appreciate any suggestions or workarounds!

Edit: The closest solution I’ve found for Gmail-style email organization with full folder-path visibility in Outlook is using the Ctrl + Shift + V keyboard shortcut in the new version of Outlook. It also works in the web version.

Hi all just wanted to ask this question becuase I’ve been sitting with what I think could be the longest. Here we go: momphineasandferbaremakingatitlesequence@outlook.com. Anyways thank y’all for looking

I've recently started using outlook for my uni email. And straight away there were already problems. I received 2 emails which were fine but then no communication for about a month prior to uni starting, but I didn't think of it.

Then when I started uni, my course head was mentioning the emails we would have received, which I never got. I went to the app and kept on refreshing, and nothing was coming. Then I logged out and logged back in again, then all of a sudden it showed all the emails that I had received.

This was a couple weeks ago, and I thought it was maybe a one time bug. I had last received an email on Wednesday, so I assumed it was fine. Then today I got an email to my personal Gmail from my head of course, and he again mentioned that he had sent emails to our uni email today. Went on to the app, kept refreshing, no new email. Logged back in, boom, 3 new emails. Has this happened to anyone else! Please help! This issue is on my mobile app, I'm not sure if it's the same yet on my laptop.
