Junk button grayed out in Outlook RT on Surface

Junk button grayed out in Outlook RT on Surface

After updating my Surface tablet to Windows 8.1, I now also have Outlook available to me.

I know some things are not available like macros and 3rd party add-ins and such, but I also noticed that the Junk button is grayed out.

The fact that the button is there makes me believe it can be turned on somehow but I can’t find it.

How do I enable the Junk E-mail Filter in Outlook RT on my Surface tablet?

Junk E-mail Filter settings for multiple accounts

Junk E-mail Filter settings for multiple accounts

I’ve added a couple of addresses to my Safe Senders, Safe Recipients and Blocked Senders lists and also increased the filtering level to High.

This works great for my main email account in Outlook but it doesn’t seem to work for my other accounts. Even emails from addresses that are on my Blocked Senders list aren’t being filtered.

How can I enable the Junk E-mail Filter for my other accounts as well?

Internet Explorer 11 only loads OWA Light

Internet Explorer 11 only loads OWA Light

I've just installed Windows 8.1 which includes Internet Explorer 11. Apparently, I'm now a bit too up-to-date for my company, which is still running Exchange 2007.

When I go to the OWA website, I'm only being offered the OWA Light version and no longer the full feature Premium version; The option to use OWA Light is selected and cannot be disabled.

Can I still access the Premium version somehow or does this require my company to install an Exchange update or even upgrade to a newer version?

Restore a pst-file after configuring a POP3 account via Auto Account Setup

Restore a pst-file after configuring a POP3 account via Auto Account Setup

I’ve just switched to a new computer and configured Outlook with my POP3 account which automatically created the Inbox, Drafts, Sent Items, etc… folders listed under my POP3 email address.

I’ve been able to reconnect to my pst-files (outlook.pst and archive.pst) via:
File-> Open-> Open Outlook Data File

This successfully imported my Personal Folders, but listed them in a separate section below the email titled section rather than merged them.

I then tried running the Import and Export Wizard, but it displays a window showing:

"The Outlook data file (.pst) is already in use in the current profile".

How can I merge my pst-files restored from my backup with the newly created folders under my email address?
