I'm opening emails and Outlook and it is not being counted or accounted for in the rewards. As for this morning, I've opened up 6 /6 emails and none have been rewarded so it's still 0/ 3.

    Hello Chris,

    Thank you for submitting the query in the community forum!

    I see that you're experiencing an issue with Microsoft Rewards, where opening emails in Outlook isn't being counted toward earning points. Even though you've opened multiple emails, your progress remains unchanged.

    To clarify, opening emails in Outlook does not contribute to earning points in Microsoft Rewards. To accumulate points, you can engage in activities such as searching on Bing, taking quizzes, or completing special offers. If you're looking for ways to boost your rewards, exploring these activities could help.

    Thank you for your time and cooperation.

    Sincerely,

    Sam | Microsoft Community Moderator.

    This is incorrect. Reading three emails in outlook is a daily task along the lines of doing three Bing searches. It might be regional, but this is a task that appears to have stopped working for a number of people today.

    Actually in Outlook the option down at the bottom right says Rewards and after a very many days and then rewards me with a 1000.

    So yes, when opening emails it does contribute.

    I am having the same issue, except that mine is at the final puzzle piece which would give me 100 points.
