Account recovery
Please expand the account recovery form to include more questions, & thus more chance to recover an old account. Questions like "(apprimately) when was the account made", "(appr.) when did you last login", "from which email accounts did you receive emails" and "to which accounts was your email linked" would be helpful. I know the last two are less reliable, but maybe make them 'weigh' less importance to compensate. And maybe allow for a 5~10% window on the "when" questions if theyre more than 2 months ago.
Lastly, it would be really nice if it were possible to speak to…6 votes -

Spammer using my e mail address AND Blocks not working and
Scammer.
1. Specific Issue
I keep getting a scammer using my e mail address to send bogus FEDEX e mails to me asking for my postal address details. How do i stop them?
2. VERY IMPORTANT
Why do you only block specific e mail addresses and not the @***.co section as i am repeatedly getting the same spam e mails but with the sender just chaning part of the leading part of the e mail address e.g. 1 digit or character, as a result the blocks do not work

sign in
why do I have to sign in all the time? I checked keep me signed in.
49 votesHey, thanks for the feedback!
Is it possible that you’re accessing OWA from a different browser each time you’re signing in? The “Keep Me Signed In” feature will only work if you access from the same browser on the same computer in normal browsing mode.
If you access in private browsing mode, it will not remember your “Keep Me Signed In” preference.
Alternatively, if you clear your cookies, it will not remember your sign in preferences.
Can you give us any more details about what’s going on?

Scroll bar design limits accessibility
Scroll bars are far too narrow, and making the bar mostly invisible makes it incredibly difficult for people with limited eyesight to see, and the tiny size can make it awkward to select.

Cannot block multiple spam emails at once
This seems like it should be a simple fix. There is clearly a massive issue with the amount of spam that is sent and the amount of spam that gets to recipients. While it is probably useless to try to block sender accounts because they will simply change a few characters and keep sending away, for hotmail to not bother having the option to block multiple spam emails at once seems to be willful ignorance to the problem, or laziness as to not implement a solution. If there are legitimate reasons to as to why the issues is still not…

Blocking selected senders
Without opening any questionable messages, the "Block" feature previously available in the "Junk email" folder was good in that it displayed the email address ID for the selected message(s) before giving the option to confirm the "Block" request. This helpful option does no appear to be available any longer.
66 votesWe are working on adding the confirmation dialog that will list the full set of email addresses in full when multiple senders are selected to be blocked.
Thanks for your patience and the feedback!
