Hi there,
Thank you for using Outlook Mobile and sharing your ideas with us. We really appreciate your support.
There are a few quick and easy way to delete emails from the Outlook app.

This app needs to let users know when it can't sync with the mail server.
Once the current app can't sync, it doesn't alert user that you are no longer receiving any new emails. This app should show an alert message when for any reason can't sync with mail server and can't fetch new emails.

Once you’ve selected multiple emails, you’ll then be able to perform mov actions on them, like moving, deleting, marking as read/unread, archiving… A “Select All” option will also appear in the top right corner.

When we flag an e-mail on a cellphone, there is no synchronization on the Exchange server and therefore there is no flag on that e-mail.
Fix this: When a flag is e-mailed on a mobile phone, there is no synchronization on the Exchange server and therefore there is no flag on that e-mail on PC Outlook.

New notification banners override previous banners, causing loss of options on previous banner
For example, when offline, a banner appears at the bottom. This replaced the previous banner, which contained the 'undo' button for a draft I had accidentally discarded. Now, the draft is permanently lost! So inconvenient! Suggestion: stack banners, must press/swipe to dismiss.
