It's super late, should've been to bed like 4 hours ago lol. As I'll sleep in, figured I'd put up an out of office. I go to Outlook, settings, automatic replies and get this:

Absolutely infuriating as now I have to go fire up the PC in the dead of night and go into Outlook there so I can set the message when all I wanna do is flop in bed and sleep heh. What's up with this? I tried connecting to wi-fi in case it was a signal issue, no difference. Closed the app, reopened, same thing. Rebooted the phone, same thing.

Super irritating.
