Hi everyone - has anyone had issues with sending emails using Outlook 365 for Macs? Especially a red error box that appears at the bottom (attached) and says "Message failed to send Open" The email is then stuck in drafts with the option to continue editing but it is simply frozen in drafts and the only way is to delete and try again. Alternatively, you can go to the webmail version of outlook, find the drafts folder and send from there. This has been happening on/off for several weeks now, no pattern, just happens occasionally.
This version of Outlook 365 is absolutely **** with so many issues
Using older versions of Outlook for Mac for personal email and calendar
Locked Question. This question was migrated from the Microsoft Support Community. You can vote on whether it's helpful, but you can't add comments or replies or follow the question.
I have now version 16.80 and haven't seen this dreaded message for the last week or so, looks promising.
THanks

Same issue for me and my colleagues. This has been known about for months, please fix it!
Attached the support answer,
A short and unprofessional answer
Did anyone have a solution to this?

It's a disaster issue; Microsoft support doesn't know how to fix it
So unprofessional!!
