I sometimes forward messages which I’ve received or a sent as attachments to someone else.

Instead of receiving the attachments that I sent them, they receive them as noname.eml attachments which they cannot open. When they click on it, they only see gibberish.

This doesn’t happen for everyone but mainly for people who are using Gmail, Outlook.com/Hotmail or another web mail account rather than using Outlook.

How can I make sure that they receive the email attachments as it should and that they can read it?

The message list has changed quite a bit in Outlook 2013.

• The mail icons are gone and has been replaced with a blue bar
• The subject is now in blue
• The sender name is being displayed larger than the rest
• The first line of a message in now being displayed.

I don't find this new configuration very clear and, due to some other UI changes as well, I now see 4-6 messages less in my message list than I did in Outlook 2010.

How can I set it back to the way it was in Outlook 2010?

I'm trying to locate the Inbox Repair Tool (scanpst.exe) for Outlook 2010 but when I look in the correct location, I don't see it there.

In fact, I only see a couple of files listed in the Office14 folder and even OUTLOOK.EXE isn't listed there.

Why isn't SCANPST.EXE or even OUTLOOK.EXE found on my computer?
Or even more important; How am I supposed to repair my pst-file now?

When typing in the Search field in the Start Menu, I also get results from Outlook. When presenting, I often start my applications via a Search in the Start Menu as well. Obviously, I do not want to reveal my contacts (customers) and some other data that I've stored in Outlook to others when doing this.

How can I prevent the Search results to also reveal Outlook data in the Start Menu?

I've been granted permissions on some of the mailbox folders of my colleague. As he has become ill, I've been asked to enable his Automatic Replies (Out of Office) feature for his mailbox. However, when I select his Inbox folder and enable it, it only works for my own mailbox.

How can I enable the Out of Office function for this additional mailbox as well?

Once or twice a month, I go through the Junk E-Mail folder and scan through it, looking for valid e-mails before emptying it out. If I find something that isn't Junk, I click on “Not Junk” and then it moves it to the Inbox.

In this case, I had multiple senders of which multiple valid e-mails ended up in my Junk E-mail folder and I had to manually look for and move each e-mail to the Inbox.

Is there any way to use the “Not Junk” button and then have that automatically apply to all other e-mails from the same sender within the Junk E-mail folder as well?

I'm having an issue with Outlook and one of the suggestions told me to start Outlook from the Run command with the /safe switch and check something. However, I'm in a corporate environment and the Run command has been disabled for us.

Is there an other way to troubleshoot Outlook or get into Safe Mode or should I call my IT department?

My computer crashed while Outlook was running so I now want to check my pst-file for errors with scanpst.exe.

After searching for a long time on my computer, I finally found it in a very odd location (e.g. not in the location everybody is saying where it should be) and I can’t start it either as that returns a permissions error.

Why is scanpst.exe not in its default location and how can I start it so I can repair my pst-file?
