My Outlook 2016 ost mailbox was about 15 GB so today I tried to archive everything from 2010 - 2016 to a pst file, using the built in tool (File > Tools ?\> Clean Up Old Items). I havetwo questions: 1. When I look at "folder size" within Outlook, it now shows about 1Gb, which is about what...

I have (3) Exchange accounts + an Outlook.com account set up in Outlook 2016. I have the main account (File > Account Settings) set as the default send account, but it appears to be a worthless setting that only works if I've launched Outlook and created a new message. Otherwise the send to...

I have an Exchange email account with many different email aliases. Is there any column available that can be used in an email folder view so I can easily see which email alias address the email was actually sent to? For instance let's say the account address is "david@company.com" and the...

I feel like this should be really easy to figure out or find with a search, but I'm not having any luck. In Outlook 2016 People list views there is a "full name" column. It displays as first/last, but it also includes title. So every darn name shows up with a Mr. or Ms. making it worthless to...

Please see attached screesnhot. A recent upgrade changed Outlook for Android and when notifications reminders come up I can no long see a way to dismiss or snooze them. I can dismiss the Android notification itself, but Outlook pops it up again every 5 minutes. The only way I've been able to...

1. First the silliest question of the day - is there anyplace users can go anymore to find a FULL online help manual for a product? Not isolated help articles based on a search, but an actual manual that allows you to see information on every setting in the app? 2. No matter what I do, under...

We are using Office 365. As the admin I would like a simple way to blacklist/block certain domains for our entire Office 365 account right from Outlook. As an example when I'm hit with spam all day I'd like to be able to right click on the message and select "block all email from this domain"...

Edit: found the answer here: http://www.outlook-tips.net/tips/search-email-domain/ I frequently need to do searches on email sent to people at a specific company. For instance, let's suppose I want to search for the following: - All emails sent to anyone with @microsoft.com as part of the...

When I select the calendar view in Outlook 2010 I can drag the sidebar over and see a years worth or easily more of the small 30-day calendars on the side. Days that have appointments are bold, but the difference is so subtle it's ridiculous. Is there any way to make those days bolder or a...

I just moved from Outlook 2010 to Outlook 2013. In the process I deleted the ost file and let 2013 create a new one. The .ost file in 2010 was 12 GB (I have several years of mail), both on my desktop and laptop. The .ost file for 2013 is 3 GB! It sure looks like everything has resynced, but...

I use Microsoft Outlook 2010 with a hosted exchange account. I also maintain several alias addresses, most of them get directed to certain folders via rules. On occasion I need to double-check the email address (alias) a message was sent to. Clicking on my name in the "to" area doesn't work...

For those of you who are familiar with the way you can enter a note/pic/dictation in Evernote on your phone and instantly have it appear in your Evernote desktop app, I'd like something similar except it instantly emails it to (or appears in) Outlook. I could do it manually but it's hugely...

Note: I am NOT referring to the To-Do List in the left navigation bar, obviously that brings up a list of all tasks as well as flagged emails etc. Rather when any task folder OR the to-do list is selected in the left navigation bar, using "Change View" it's then possible to select views such as...

I would like to be able to zoom in/out on various Microsoft Outlook views. I know I can do it when I have an item open such as an email or task, but I also need to be able to do it on task views, email inbox etc. Is there any way to do this, or any add-ons out there that allow it to be done...

I love the shortcuts area in Outlook and use it to create some links to some commonly used web pages. Unfortunately when I click on such links in the Outlook shortcut area I am often greeted by the warning "do you want to continue running scripts on this page". I then have to click though a...

I use Outlook for time tracking. Is there any way to automatically insert a start time and end time by clicking on a button? It's very laborious to have to manually enter the start and end time. I'm aware that I could use Journal, but Journal is worthless for other reasons. I have seen...

Is it possible to simply change the existing profile?? Even if I enter all of the settings manually and then "check name" Outlook always keeps popping up the box asking for a password and then cannot resolve the name. What I am trying to avoid is the laborious process of creating a new profile...

I am using this Outlook add-in (http://www.tasktocal.com/quickstart.aspx) which adds tasks to the Outlook calendar, a feature I have wanted for a long time (I know I can create a dedicated calendar view for tasks but that is of no interest to me). However when the add-in adds them to the...

I'm in the progress of trying to migrate to a different Exchange hosting partner. I was starting to set up a new profile and now not only won't Outlook launch, but I can't even launch the mail icon in control panel. I thought I might have a corrupt profile - could that even stop the mail app...
