I have been trying to fix Outlook for three days now. With the help of Earthlink, Geek Squad, etc. I am unable to send or receive emails through through my Outlook. Web mail is fine.

    My neice cannot sign in. She has tried everything and email blocked her for 24 hours. She tried again after 24 hours and was blocked again. What are we paying for??? Nothing has changed in her account. She was trying to access BBC - for which she has a licence - and they sent a code to her email account. When she tried to access it she had to sign in to Outlook and it wouldn't accept her password. This has taken too much time and effort and no customer support.

    It's clear that Microsoft Outlook is aware of these problems. It's time we moved elsewhere.

    The problem is over 1 month old. I receive email one or two times a day. I cannot send email as it hangs in the draft folders. Calendar invitations also get lost.

    A freeware desktop client works fine, however it has a clunky interface.

    I am looking for better alternatives with mail and calendar.
