View/settings
The format blows. You should have all the menus on the left side so it is easy to navigate like it used to be.

Spam Fighters Crashes Outlook
When responding to a spam fighters email by clicking the junk/not junk buttons, it opens the spam fighters tab and immediately crashes my Outlook email. I then can't access my email at all for hours, sometimes all day. I have contacted the support team on Twitter who directed me here.

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…13 votes -

Roombooking: Roomnames in Dropdownlist are confusing
Roombooking: Please remove Roomnames from the Dropdownlist in the Location-field. Because if you put a Room from the List , the Room is not invited .. there is no Request.
Some Users do not see the different, so the room is not booked by themself, but they think so.3 votes -

Folders, when collapsed can hide important emails in child folders
If you have a folder with several child folders where email gets auto-sorted into the child folder, it's extremely easy to miss this new/important emails if the parent folder in the left panel gets collapsed (which happens automatically if you enter outlook's web app through the app launcher) because the parent folder has ZERO indication that any of the folders nested within it have received any emails, while the hidden child folder entries do.
I've missed several important time-sensitive emails as a result of parent folders getting collapsed without being noticed.

Why does the calendar now open fully up on the left showing another calendar
Don't understand the need to have two calendars showing for the same month. Reduces my calendar show much, already shrunken enough. Need to close that left pane just to see my calendar.
Why does it also not show appointments as it used to? I would like to see my appointments and events all on one calendar.2 votes -
Hate where snoozed is located
Why did you put the snoozed option where you did? Could you put it somewhere else? I've been using hotmail for over 20 years and now I have to get used to snooze being where mark unread is and it's driving me nuts especially if I'm not fast enough to get past the snooze it automatically brings up the whole snooze ****!

Notes in web view
Finally we can see our notes in outlook.com web view but it is not possible to add new note in here. Calendar, tasks, contacts all nice. The only missing item is Notes here in the web view. It is very important for all people like me to prefer outlook.com web platform rather than Outlook client.

Automatically update a room name in users’ calendar when the room name is changed
It would be great if administrators can update the room name in users’ calendar at once or the change will be automatically reflected in users’ calendar when the room had already added in a calendar item.
When you change the room name, the new name will not be reflected automatically in users’ calendar. So they currently need to re-add their calendar each time.4 votes -
Create a page to show the schedule of all meeting rooms (appointment status) in a list.
It would be great if we could put URL links on the intra portal site so that the schedule of all meeting rooms is shown in the destination page.

Schedule Teams Meeting faster
With the current work from home Situation I find myself scheduling teams meetings like crazy. I think it would be really great if there would be a switch to transform a calendar entry into a teams meeting directly in the first pop up you get when clicking on a time slot in Outlook web app. (Just like the „all day“ toggle we get there)

Junk/Spam mail filter/notifications email causing too many redirects
Junk/Spam mail filter/notifications email causing too many redirects.
I'm not sure what happened, but someone changed the code that whenever I get the Microsoft email asking if a particular email is junk mail or not, after you respond, several things happen (or don't happen):
1) it doesn't automatically delete that email anymore
2) In Firefox, it will open up a new tab, but when you click on "close", it doesn't close the tab.
3) In Google Chrome and Firefox now, after you select whether the email is junk mail or not, Outlook.com will break and produce an error message:

Block Sender
You marked "completed" the "Block Sender" item that had over 1100 votes and many more comments. The solution you gave does not work when the email is already in the "Junk" email folder. Right clicking on items in the "Junk" folder opens the email. It does bring up the "Block" function, but still opens the email. Again, your solution addresses emails that are not already in the "Junk" folder. Please reopen this issue and give us a way to block emails without having to open them if they are already in the Junk folder based on your spam criteria. This…
