Outlook is terrible, I much prefer my old hotmail account.........and it's nothing to do with people not liking change. Since my Outlook conversion I've had problems with it being slow and the amount of time I get the message 'we can't connect to Outlook at the moment, please try later it's so frustrating when you want to do stuff.....what's going on Microsoft?????

Me too. I think Microsoft have not thought this conversion to Outlook through. I have not been able to read my emails for two days now!!!
"We can't connect to Outlook at the moment. Please try again later."
I have been getting this daily for over two months. As it has not been rectified during this considerable time by Microsoft I am investigating other options. I hear that people are migrating from Outlook to Yahoo and Gmail. I am looking into doing the same.

Well said, I couldn't have put it better myself. I also have done all the recommended checks and still not difference!!!! No problems with Hotmail - if it's not broken don't fix it!!!!!!!!!! BTW still struggling to get my e-mails.
This is a bloody joke today. When are you going to fix it I use my computer for work and cannot get any e-mails through, it's gone on long enough, come on work faster and cure the problem!!! I will give it until the weekend and if it's no better by then it will be goodbye from Outlook and hello Gmail.
