Outlook for Android

← Outlook for Android

Don't hide the REAL email address of the sender. Outlook only shows a coloured circle with a letter, dangerous spams are hidden this way.

Dangerous spams use a false but trusted looking address as name. The real address that actually shows its a spam is hidden behind a useless coloured circle in outlook.

    I can read sender names just fine. I don't need the colored badges, which make subjects impossible to read on my phone, and clutter the reading experience even on my pc.

    Having the email details and a bit more details who the email is from can be very useful, please Kindly try to include this feature. Usually on most apps this will be visible, thanks

    The old Hotmail online certainly had much better control. Then we were force to use this **** app, which has made management of emails unmanageable! I DON'T THINK THEY ARE LISTENING!

    please don't force us to choose a different email client

    Perhaps only hide the real email address if the sender is in my Contacts, retaining the option to click on the name and see which of their addresses they used for that email. I can then easily see which emails are from contacts.

    lose "other" it is totally random at selecting mail. when a mail in junk is moved to inbox all future mail from that address goes to inbox eg ebay. PayPal....

    Fixing this must be a priority! Too many hacker imposters look like people on my contact list. if I could see the email address instead of just the name, I wouldn't open the fake ones!
