When doing a Search in Outlook, I noticed that it by default only displays a limited amount of results.
While you can then click under the search box or search reults to display all results, is it also possible to always display all the results or customize the amount of search results which are be being returned?
Is there a way to create a Task within a Calendar Appointment or Meeting item?
For instance; I'd like to create a finance meeting in my Calendar folder but I need to track and complete 4 individual tasks that will prepare me for the meeting.
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?
As a mobile user, I love it that I can also cache other user's shared folders and Public Folder Favorites.
However, some of these users are true packrats and some of these Public Folder Favorites are huge archives. The result is that my ost-file is really large (nearing 20GB) and makes my laptop slow since it doesn't have a high performance SSD drive. I'm also starting to run out of disk space as I only have a 120GB disk in my laptop.
Aside from investing in a fast new disk or telling my colleagues to clean up, what else can I do?
When trying to create a new signature or editing an existing one, I get the following error;
"You are attempting to save a file type (Web Pages) that has been blocked by your File Block settings in the Trust Center"
The error also gives instructions to solve it, but when I follow these, I don't seem to have a "File Block Settings" in Trust Center.
How can I solve this and re-enable the saving of Signatures again?
For archiving or approving purposes (especially with Drafts), we need to print out e-mail messages with the current date and time on it.
I believe Outlook 2003 did this automatically but Outlook 2007, Outlook 2010 and Outlook 2013 no longer do this. Instead these versions only print with the sent/received date and no date at all for Draft messages.
Is there any way to "restamp" the date and time on a message when printing?
Lately, people tend to send me messages which are already flagged and have a follow up reminder.
Is there a way to disable these type of remote flags and reminders?
Quite a few of my contacts in Outlook are not just business contacts but I also have a personal connection to them.
Therefore, I'd like to be able to add the names of their spouse and children to their contact records. If possible, I'd also like to be able to enter their birthdays.
What is the best way to create or add these kind of relationships to a contact?
I'm trying to set a reminder on a message but I only have the option to flag it or to clear the flag. There are no options such as Today, Tomorrow, This Week, Next Week, etc... which I'm supposed to get.
This might have something to do with the fact that I'm using a IMAP account.
Is there still a way to mark my messages for follow up or at least get them to show up as a Task in my To-Do Bar?
We have a shared Calendar in which there are several recurring appointments with organizers that are no longer in the company.
How can I locate all these appointments/meetings and change the meeting owner to somebody else?
