In the bottom left corner of the Navigation Pane, I see buttons for Mail, Calendar, Contact, etc… and also one called Shortcuts. In it, there is already a shortcut for Microsoft Office Online.

I am having trouble to find a way to add anything else besides Outlook folders. For instance; A link to my templates folder or a specific template file (oft-file) and a Internet link to my mailbox’ web access.

We’re using Microsoft 365 Groups instead of Distribution Lists so that a history of these emails are kept in Groups in Outlook as well.

However, I noticed that Groups in Outlook only shows only up to 1 year of emails. When I look at the Microsoft 365 Group in Outlook on the Web, all the emails are shown.

I’ve set Outlook to sync all my emails but it still only shows up to 1 year for Groups. Performing a search doesn’t return any items which are available online either.

How can I configure Outlook to sync all emails from the Microsoft 365 Groups?

What is the best way to create or add these kind of relationships to a contact?

I'm typing a letter in Word and I would like to insert contact information to it (sender and recipient information). I've got all the contact details in Outlook but it looks like I'm only able to insert it via a Mail Merge which seems overkill for me.
