I sometimes receive meeting invitations which includes attachments. In general, I keep my mailbox clean by saving my attachments to disk and then remove them from my emails.
However, while I can remove attachments for received messages, I can’t seem to delete them for received meeting invitations.
Is it possible to remove the attachments from a meeting invitation prior to accepting it?
Several messages in my IMAP account in Outlook have message headers (such as subject and From address) which do not apply to the message body.
The message body appears to be from previous emails, show garbled or can't be downloaded at all. Attachments seem to be affected as well.
Why is this happening and how can I fix these messages?
For my work, I regularly need to create schedules for organized events. For this I create several appointments in my calendar which together span an entire day, a week or more.
Sometimes, the schedules themselves are ok, but I need to move up everything a bit due to changes in the planning. For instance, start everything half an hour later, move everything a day or a week.
Do I really need to reschedule every appointment one-by-one?
I prefer working with the Calendar in the Month view but every now and them Outlook seems to change this to the Day view all by itself.
How can I keep Outlook in the Month view?
I'm accessing a shared mailbox in Outlook 2010 and also have the option to cache shared folders enabled.
Sometimes, when I create a new folder or rename an exisiting folder in the shared mailbox, the folder doesn't show up or gets renamed back to the original folder when restarting Outlook.
How can I see these changes directly or make them permanent without disabling Cached Exchange Mode?
When writing a message Outlook is no longer putting those red squiggly lines under misspelled words.
In Options, I’ve verified that the options “Check spelling as you type” and “Mark grammar errors as you type” are enabled but it is still not working.
It still works correctly in Word and Word and Outlook are the same version as well.
How can I enable spellcheck for Outlook again?
I want to export only a limited part of my mailbox but it looks like it's only possible to select an entire folder.
How can I set a filter so I can export only messages belonging to a specific category, within a specific time-frame or from specific contacts?
Using your previous tip of the Mini-Translator, I find that I sometimes still need to use the Research Pane to translate the text as the language isn’t always properly recognized.
This isn’t really an issue but selecting the correct “From” language is a bit cumbersome since the list of available languages is so long. The same is true for selecting the correct “To” language which for me basically only is English, Dutch or German.
Is there a way to trim down the list of translation languages to choose from to only the languages that I actually use?
Ever wanted to include a screenshot in your email?
For instance, when requesting technical support or providing it, it often can be handy to include screenshots directly in your email message to clarify an issue or to provide instructions.
Outlook does actually have a cool feature to quickly insert a screenshot or a clipping, but there are even more way to easily and quickly insert a good looking screenshot in an email.
Have you discovered the Mini Translator already?
It is a quick way to translate a word or a text selection and can even be used in the Reading Pane without the need to open the Research Pane or the message itself.
