    Slow calendar

    Whenever I click on Calendar (in the main pst, which is local, and pretty much the only calendar location I use), it takes at least 3 seconds before the content is actually displayed there (sometimes nothing is displayed immediately on click, sometimes it's just the calendar without any...

    PDF attachments started to open in Edge

    Quite some time ago I read Microsoft was forcing PDF filetype defaults to Edge, and even reversing previously user-set choices. Later on, they apparently "fixed" this back to the (normal) way it has always been. However, for the last couple of days I've been noticing that PDF attachments in...

    Safe way to add or update holidays; Windows Notifications issue

    Is there any "safe" way to add or update holidays in Outlook, so that you avoid creating duplicates or some similar mess? Like from some plain-text file, where you can remove entries in the past etc.? I used to add them from Options/Calendar/ Add Holidays, but from what I can see, it doesn't...

    MHT files (from "View in browser")

    On HTML mail messages, there's usually also an option "view in browser". I remember this used to work when I used it a few years ago. If I do it now, it opens in Edge, and it only displays plain text "code" there, instead of a rendered message with images and formatting. Pretty much the same in...

    Getting rid of "This computer only"

    I've had three issues with my main mailbox (IMAP account): - Why are there multiple "This computer only" folders? I don't use them, because I keep contacts, calendars, etc., in another PST file. This IMAP account is the default one, though - if this is related. It's not possible to delete them...

    Unable to move message

    In the new Outlook, I often get a dialog box "The operation cannot be performed because the message has been changed." when I try to move an email message from one folder to another (e.g. from IMAP Inbox to a local folder in another .pst). Is there any way to solve this? Usually it "wears off"...

    Are newer versions of Outlook still "less secure" to Google?

    I read somewhere that Google is about to cancel their "less secure access", which I had to use to reach Gmail in Outlook 2013. Is Outlook 2021 still considered "less secure" in this regard? One thing I did notice when adding Gmail and Outlook.com to Outlook 2021 was that they had a different...

    Any way to create "from-only" account on Outlook 2021?

    In the old Outlook 2013, I had a couple of "from-only" accounts - for when I wanted to send an email from a specific address without its own account (I have my own domain or two, with some forwarders and catch-all included). They were excluded from send/receive, of course, defined as POP3...

    Any PocketKnife Peek equivalent?

    I've been using PocketKnife Peek for as long as I can remember, as it's a very useful tool to open suspicious mails in plain-text, and it also offers HTML viewer and viewing mail headers in an acceptable size window (as opposed to the default tiny field under Message Options...). I see it's...

    Automatic switch between working offline/online

    Is there any way to make Outlook automatically switch between Work Offline and Work Online states? For example, if I unplug ethernet cable, turn wifi off, switch to airplane mode etc., it would switch to work offline (thus not checking email every X minutes and not adding to Sync Issues). And...

    iTunes sync on a new computer - any issues to be expected?

    On the new computer I've already installed Office '21, and iTunes is in the pipeline also. The PST files will be moved from the "old" computer. Should I expect any issues when doing the first iPhone-Outlook sync on the new computer (such as double entries or completely messing up all contacts...

    Move turns into "copy"

    I've noticed today that the "move" action from the "move" menu somehow turned into "copy": Any idea what could have caused this? I actually noticed it "by accident", as I was using it via "muscle memory" (not paying any attention), and in turn saw that the moved message was still there... :)...

    Outlook (2013) issues with icloud.com mail

    For a couple of weeks or so, I've had some weird issue with Outlook and icloud.com IMAP mail account. Whenever I move an email from its folder to a local (PST) folder (which I usually do, as I don't keep "dealt-with" emails online), it gets moved normally as usual, and at the same time an error...

    Folders always closed in move/copy items dialog box

    The Move Items and Copy Items dialog boxes always show un-expanded PST/folder trees when you open Outlook (at least until version 2013). Is there any way to have them display the structure expanded as it was in previous session?

    Attachment icon when there is no attachment

    Any idea why there is the paperclip icon in Inbox for some emails that don't actually have an attachment? It's only shown in the view (4th column), not on the open message. If I move the message from the (IMAP) Inbox to a local folder, the icon is not shown there anymore. Currently I'm seeing...

    Search cannot complete the indexing of your Outlook data

    I've noticed several errors in Windows Application Log (Event ID 36) with "Search cannot complete the indexing of your Outlook data. Indexing cannot continue for C:\Users\... (error=0x81404005). If this error continues, contact Microsoft Support." This started some time in June, I suppose. It's...

    iCloud mail with two-factor authentication

    Today my Outlook 2013 stopped working with iCloud email account. At first I thought it was one of the semi-regular issues when Outlook starts asking for password for no reason (and restart usually helps), but turned out this wasn't the case. The issue remained even after a reboot, so I removed...

    Microsoft Exchange Add-in

    Is "Microsoft Exchange add-in" required in Outlook 2013 in order for iTunes sync to work? I disabled it a while ago, and I've noticed that the last two syncs didn't update Contacts on my iPhone. So I checked the Info tab in iTunes, and there were notices about Outlook not being installed (for...

    Finding items from last 7 days

    In one PST file I have a Search Folder that displays messages received within last 7 days. It was created via "New search folder" dialogs. So far so good. How can I view all items (or at least email messages) received/created within the last 7 days in all PST files? If I click the search box...

    Is Outlook.com EAS in Outlook 2013 "non-renamable"?

    I've had Outlook.com account as IMAP in my Outlook 2013. I added it also as EAS account later on, and it was "conveniently" named "username@outlook.com (1)" (as the IMAP account already has the email as its name). Is there any way to rename this EAS account at all? I tried the method used for...
