Can't attach files - STILL!
Outlook.com has become a failure. It would seem that 90% of the time I'm unable to send an email with an attachment as I get to notifications to say either "The following files couldn't be attached" or "this message can't be saved at the moment". If this is a lame attempt to have me use the cloud or go 'pro' it has failed. I will now go to Gmail. MS - you're becoming a legacy and not current and vital!!

Mail > Subscription
Hotmail/Outlook- Mail > Subscriptions > I can not delete newsletters I did not subscribe to
Under my settings>mail>subscriptions - there is a ton of newsletters/junk email/spam that I never added and can not delete. I don't know how they got there and how can i remove them.Image
No matter what I've tried to delete these it doesn't work - spammers latched themselves this way?

BLOCK EMAIL ADDRESSES
BLOCK EMAIL ADDRESSES - The option to block junk email addresses used to be on your menu along with Sweep, Move to and Delete. An update you made 1-2 years ago removed this, making it MORE cumbersome to block bogus email addresses. Now I have to (1) select one or more email addresses, (2) right-click, (3) then select Block. Please restore this to the menu bar.

Bulk delete of subscriptions
unsubscribing from subscriptions. It would be good to have the ability to unsubscribe from multiple subscriptions, especially when they were added through a junk email. Also, removing any subscription automatically that is linked to a junk email would be great.

Dark Mode Readability
Dark Mode is not rendering fine on desktop mode. The fonts are very bright to read. The readability isn't good on eyes. Please fix this problem since dark mode is a great feature of the Outlook web email.

Subscription Management
Relentless emails from multiple addresses from wanted and unsolicited sites. Like LINKEDIN is grouped, should there be better sorting, aggregation and filtering of email "Subscriptions"?

How do I use blocking? Doesn't work!
Blocked sender domains are not getting sent to junk mail automatically. Here it is: seeingeye.org The guy fills in whatever name at the beginning, keeps sending BS from the same domain name, and I can't get rid of it.

Don't Like Delete Icon 'popping up' in the Inbox, when the deleted email is reachable in the Deleted Folder.
I don't like the feature that 'pops up' (on the "Inbox") when one deletes an email. (It states: "Deleted" and "Undo".) It is very distracting and hides / covers up upcoming emails on the Inbox list. - What is the purpose to retrieve it (deleted email) from our regular 'delete folder'? WE CAN JUST GO TO OUR DELETED FOLDER. - If you were to find a way to bring up deleted emails (deleted from the delete folder) that would be a good feature. But to have an icon pop-up in the Inbox with every time we click to delete an…

Select checkbox
The Master checkbox used to only select what was on my screen, this made it easy for me to clear batches of email quickly. Now, the checkbox selects everything in a folder, even if I've not had a chance to see it. This is not helpful at all.

Deleted Items Folder - Mass vs Selective Delete of Items
Deleted Items Folder - Need to be able to delete items by the page by clicking the Deleted Items button - available in previous version. New version selects all mail in Deleted Items folder to be deleted. I now have to select emails individually to delete - wasting my time.
