I’m using the Outlook app on my mobile device but it doesn’t seem to support the Online Archive as I can’t find it anywhere.
I tried to work around it by using Outlook on the Web in my browser, but that doesn’t show the Online Archive either even though it does show it when I use Outlook on the Web on my Desktop.
How do I access the Online Archive when I’m working on my mobile?
Aside from my own mailbox, I’ve also added a couple of Shared Mailboxes to my Folder List in Outlook.
I also regularly use Outlook on the Web (OWA) and know how I can open another user’s mailbox, but can I also permanently add it to the Folder List on the left just like in Outlook?
I’m using various Internet connection methods for my laptop depending on where I am. For instance I use:
On some connections I get a metered network warning and Outlook doesn’t connect automatically to save costs. As I have Outlook running in the background, I often don’t even notice and miss my notifications.
How can I force Outlook to always connect regardless of the connection type?
I encountered some issues with my ost-file and so I scanned it for errors with scanpst.exe. It found some issues but scanpst.exe was unable to fix it as the issues still existed when I rescanned it after the repair.
scanost.exe as well?I’m using both the Facebook and LinkedIn Social Connector Provider in Outlook. Currently, when the contact both exists in Facebook and LinkedIn, it shows the Facebook picture.
However, since people tend to use more professional portrait photos on LinkedIn, I’d prefer to get the Linked picture instead.
Is there any way to change this?
In Outlook 2010, I used to be connected to Facebook via the Outlook Social Connector. I wanted to do this in Outlook 2013 as well but the Facebook connector isn't listed as an option anymore.
When I clicked on "Connect to another social network", I'm being taken to a website which says that the Facebook Connector is included in Office.
Obviously, it is not for me. How can I add Facebook to Outlook 2013?
In Outlook Web App (OWA), I prefer to have the Reading Pane at the bottom but since I have been upgraded to OWA on Office 365 (I'm not sure whether this is Exchange 2013 or Exchange 2016), my Reading Pane is on the right again and I can’t find a way to change that to the bottom.
In OWA 2010, this option was under a View button at the top of my message list where I could also disable Conversation View. In addition, I don’t want the message list to show the first line of the email either. I just want things back to the way I had it configured in OWA 2010.
How can I configure all this in Outlook on the Web of Office 365?
I regularly receive messages which are “on behalf of” messages. When I try to create a rule for these messages, Outlook only seems to look at the first address and not at the “on behalf of” address.
However, this “on behalf of” address is usually more interesting to me as that is the actual responsible person for the content and not “only the messenger”.
Is there any way to make Outlook’s sorting rules to look at the second address when a message is sent “on behalf of”?
Every now and then I receive an email message which requests me to send a Read Receipt. While I don't mind sending one, sometimes the timing is a bit unfortunate.
For instance, when I work late at night or quickly check my email during the holiday. Also, for one mailbox I'm only a delegate and I do not want to send out the Read Receipt for my manager.
Is there a method to easily see beforehand if an email holds a Read Receipt request or some way to send out the Read Receipt at a later time?
I think I just installed Service Pack 2 for Office 2010 but when I go to File-> Help it doesn't show that Outlook is at Service Pack 2 level. It only shows version number 14.0.7012.1000.
Does this number indicate that Service Pack 2 is installed?
