Hi guys. I am on Win10 and Office 365. I am on an IMAP system.
I am trying to reduce my mailbox size by (including other methods) deleting the attachments attached to emails with a large file size. I save the attachments to my PC and want to keep the emails but not their attachments. Opening...
I am hoping that this question fits into this discussion on contacts. I am having difficulty explaining it to Google.
I am on Outlook 2016 using win 10. We have two email accounts. One for me and one for my wife. I have an IMAP/SMTP account using an optusnet carrier. She has an Exchange account...
Hi. I am using Win 10 and Outlook 2016. I had been using Outlook as a POP a/c for decades then changed to Gmail two years ago. About 2 months ago I changed back to Outlook as it has a few desired advantages. This time I set it up as an IMAP a/c and I kept my Gmail a/c running. I linked my Gmail...
All done now thanks Diane. I had it all working properly and deleted the IMAP duplicate and you can imagine where my heart went when Outlook went blank! Despite numerous checks where I was sure my pop was the active a/c, apparently it was the IMAP. both had the same names. Anyway I rebuilt the...
I got the export and import done correctly Diane but although I can see all my files in the inbox of the imap a/c they did not export from the backup pst file.
I had previously copied my saved messages (perhaps 40) from my imap to my pop a/c and it worked successfully except for a...
Much appreciated thanks Diane. I have been going slowly a day at a time to make sure each stage works. When I once did a series of stages in one hit years ago I got in a huge mess!
My situation is I have now successfully created the two POP a/cs and they work fine. I have a personal and a...
I did reply yesterday Diane but cannot see it listed here. Must have forgotten to Post
You were right. My personal POP account defaulted to an IMAP. I rebuilt it but I could not manually point to the existing file when building it because the file type it wanted was pst. I had to use an older...
I really appreciate your help Diane. I did what you suggest with no luck. After the reset I click on my info@ file and "change folder" to "deliver messages to the following location" in my personal file which is my default file. It asks what folder I want to deliver the messages into. I can see...
Hi guys. I am using Office 365 with Outlook 2016 on Win10/64
I have two POP3 accounts and use a desktop. One is a personal, standard account and the other a business account hosted by a web carrier.
I have just completed a rebuild in Outlook and now find my sent emails are not showing in my Sent...
Hi guys. I have two POP a/c's using Outlook 2016 on Win10/64
One is a personal a/c where I receive most of my emails. It is my default a/c.
The other is a business a/c hosted by a web company and I have an info@ address.
I just had to (successfully) rebuild and I am receiving my emails in the...
I appreciate your help Diane. I understand it now after reading your link. Cloud would not delete even though it is not a pst. I am going to leave them all as they lie. They are doing no harm except for more clutter. My system is back to normal now thanks to you and I will be more vigilant if...
Much appreciated Diane. All back to normal. I moved the contacts back and deleted the folder. Thanks for your help. One final thing. I now have 6 contacts folders.
Suggested contacts 2° name
Contacts 2° name
Both these have my contacts in them so I will keep them. But I have 4 other empty...
Diane why I did the Move to folder command was because I could not find any way to select all contacts. I researched it and saw this reply for someone who had the same problem;
"That's the best you can do. The option to "Select All" seems to have been left out of Outlook 2010. At least I haven't...
I should mention when I did the move I got an error saying "the folders you are trying to change do not support this operation. Could not complete the operation because the service provider does not support it". Maybe this is why Outlook created the additional contacts folder?

Hi Diane. I have a business and a personal accounts in POP and use Outlook 2010 on Win 10, 64bit.
icloud did an update or something similar today which resulted in my contacts disappearing from my contacts file and going into a cloud folder that Outlook created.
I found your repair suggestion...
