When adding an AutoCorrect entry, I noticed that there is an option for "Plain text" and "Formatted text". However, this option is greyed out and defaults to "Plain text".
How can I enable this option is order to store AutoCorrect entries with formatting?
I have my company's website address in my signature and it should be blue and underlined.
However, it shows up purple. In the editor it shows as blue and even when I recreate it, it shows up as purple again.
How can I make it stay blue?

I'm moving from my old Windows 7 computer to a new computer running Windows 10. I've already restored my pst-file but that didn't include my signatures.
Where can I find them and how can I move them over?
When I attach a file, I get list of recent files that also includes movies and songs and other items that I will never email. Most of them are too big to attach anyway.
Is there any way to filter the Recent Items list, limit the amount of files being shown there or get rid of it completely?
I regularly save individual emails as msg-file from Outlook into a folder on my computer to more conveniently group it with other related documents.
Now that I’ve switched to the New Outlook, I seem not be able to do that anymore. There is no File command anymore either. This is where the option used to be in Classic Outlook.
Can I no longer save individual emails as msg-files anymore in the New Outlook?
In Classic Outlook, you were able to view the HTML source of an email. As a designer of templates and newsletters, this is particularly helpful to see how the HTML of an email got through when things don’t line up as expected.
Within New Outlook, I don’t see this feature anymore.
Is the “View Source” command coming to New Outlook as well or will it be removed?
Is there another way to see the HTML tags of an email in New Outlook?
I’ve created several Recurring Tasks to remind me of some daily and weekly chores such as taking my medicine, taking out the trash can and making (or actually checking) my back-ups.
However, even though I’ve set the recurrence correctly, I’m only being reminded for the first occurrence and then never again. My Recurring Appointments work as expected though.
Surely I’m overlooking something here as I assume Outlook is perfectly capable of doing this?
I'm using Office 365 but I seem unable to share and sync my mail, calendar and contact items between multiple computers even though I'm allowed to install it on up to 5 devices.
I was told that Office 365 was "Cloud Based" and I’m signed in with my Microsoft Account to Office, so shouldn't I be able to do this?
We have a maximum mailbox size of 10GB and I’m currently using 7GB of it. However, when I look at my ost-file, I see that it is over 12GB in size.
What accounts for this difference and how can I make my ost-file smaller?
