Fix multi-select delete function on spam folder
The spam folder used to support multi-select and trash (delete) function. in a recent update, this feature no longer works. I do not want to delete ALL spam at once, i would like to review my spam folder items and delete the specific one together.

It is currently already possible to perform bulk action in the app. To do this, long press on an email until a checkmark appears at the left of it. Once you’ve selected multiple emails, you’ll then be able to perform the following actions: deleting, marking as read, archiving. A “Select All” option will also appear in the top right corner.
Having trouble finding the feature? Let us know through the Help section of the app in the Settings. (Settings > Help and Feedback > Contact Support). We’re here to help.
Thank you again for your support, we look forward to hearing more of your ideas very soon.

Improve loading time when emails are received. Takes 1-3 minutes for it to be visible in the app, AFTER notification was received (eg Yahoo)
When I receive a notification about email received, and then click on notification, it says cannot open message in Outlook. Takes about 1-3 minutes before it actually shows up in the app, and I can open it.

Fix the issue with speed. email app that comes with the phone is able to download and open the email before outlook even fires up.
I did a test where i sent an email to both my work and gmail account from my work email, waited until i got the notification on both and clicked & timed the events. Responding to an outlook email takes about 4 times as long as responding to gmail. In the almost 8 secknds it took outlook to open, i had already read the email on my native email app (not gmail).

improve stability, responsiveness, redesign the recipient menu to display all names, and stop notifications for yet-unreadable messages
The app is decent, but feature light and not always stable or responsive. The recipient menu on replies hides arbitrary numbers of addresses without several taps, and also makes it easy to lose a draft. It also displays notifications for messages that cannot actually be read yet. The latter issue affects three different devices on three different carriers, so it's not an isolated issue.
