Outlook update SO SLOW!
Outlook update SO SLOW!
Just tried looking for an email which turned out to be a year ago to the day, couldn't remember email address/identity of sender. Scrolling back through history is w-a-a-a-y-y slower than previous.273 votes -

Awful, absolutely awful!!! Why can't Microsoft leave Hotmail alone while it's working and everyone is happy (reasonably so) with it?
Microsoft did this once before with the old Hotmail which worked just fine.
Now they have a spam filter, so what happened to the phishing button? Where have all the settings gone that where under options? Go to settings now and there are just a couple of options. What has happened to the encryption settings, have they been removed too? I am getting to the point now where I am thinking of moving to mail.com
Every time I log into Hotmail I am expecting more changes. Whenever there is beta release we all know it is only a matter of…

Can no longer drag & drop emails to folders
Can no longer drag and drop emails to folders. It only works if that email is not the current one open. So if I have only one email left in my inbox (I like to keep my inbox empty) I can't drag and drop that last remaining email because that one is "open" I have to click on the little circle to the left of the email, then from the drop down folder menu click on the folder I want it to go to. This is more time consuming .This is using google chrome and IE and from other computers…

improve spam filters
Improve your SPAM filter which is next to useless. How may offers for "LULL" mattresses do you think I need? When my email was hacked it took only a few hours for Microsoft to suspend my account. Why can't you identify all these useless emails as easily?

awesome / good / great
the beta version is better than the actualy version in so many ways. I love the dark mode as well as month categorization. Also the options at the top of the inbox list. Good effort.

Rule Move all messages in the Inbox folder and all future messages "when creating a rule.
Hello, Devs
Please return the option to Move all messages in the Inbox folder and all future messages when creating a rule, it is of extreme importance this feature, THAT EXISTS THE YEARS in the classic version and was withdrawn in the new one.
Why did they do that? They have taken a role that is important in day-to-day life.

Location of the trash symbol / Delete Button: Can click this accidentally
the trash symbol for deleting an email is on a very inconvenient place, as you easily click this accidently when you want to see the content of the email.

This new email setup is appalling! Why the change? It's difficult to navigate and cluttered. I would like to change back asap please.
New email setup appalling. Cluttered, difficult to navigate, emails open in narrow format. What was wrong with the last setup? Simple - can see all emails at a glance. WHY the change? If it ain't broke don't fix it! How can I change back?

New feedback
The new outlook is NOT efficient. Adding ways of editing row and column size would be very useful. Right now it shows much less info on the screen at once for emails. Personally I'd prefer much smaller amount of pixels as border per row and dragging column width (similar to other microsoft products). This is all assuming old outlook.com appearance is no longer supported

When scrolling through mail it is auto jumping back to top of the page
When scrolling down through emails it keeps randomly returning to the top of the list. When scrolling through older emails and having to wait for them to load into the list it is frustrating to have to go back down and wait each time for them to load.
