    Outlook desktop client suggested searches question

    The fact that you have an onmicrosoft address for admin, indicates it's a Microsoft 365 mailbox, not hosted on their exchange servers. When you use web mail - is the url outlook.office.com or a sherweb url? If the url is office.com, it's definitely not hosted - sherweb is reselling Microsoft...

    Outlook desktop client suggested searches question

    Suggested searches are stored in the Microsoft account online. The Delete History button only clears the entries with the magnifying glass icon. And it clears them for web and all Outlook apps. The won't clear it for IMAP accounts - The reg keys for the search entries are here - but it...

    Outlook 2019 While connecting an IMAP account in "classic" Outlook 2024 I caused a massive duplication of emails on the server (death loop)

    Yes... that would do it. If you are worried they might not all be dupes, move or archive them to a PST file, otherwise, delete the folder then empty deleted items. It's possible it is an issue with the UID. Especially if it started after you tried to import the pst. That is because you didn't...

    Outlook 2019 While connecting an IMAP account in "classic" Outlook 2024 I caused a massive duplication of emails on the server (death loop)

    BTW - eM client has a dedupe function (its on the hamburg > tools menu). It can move the dupes to a local folder or delete them.

    Outlook 2019 While connecting an IMAP account in "classic" Outlook 2024 I caused a massive duplication of emails on the server (death loop)

    Importing mail you exported from the account back into the same account is where you went wrong. When you are using IMAP you don't need to import mail from the other computer. If you have calendar and contacts in folders named “(This computer only)" they need exported/imported on the new...

    Get metadata from .msg files saved to local drive

    This is the macro I was trying in a windows vm over the weekend... that did not do anything to the fields in the view. :( Dim sPath As String Dim sSubject As String Dim sSender As String Public Sub SaveMessageAsMsg() Dim oMail As Outlook.MailItem Dim objItem As Object Dim sPath...

    Get metadata from .msg files saved to local drive

    That object is only in older versions of office as far as I know. No idea if it will work with current versions. Way back machine has it - https://web.archive.org/web/20170222195459/http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=8422

    Get metadata from .msg files saved to local drive

    You need to get the msg properties - in a global variable - as you are saving the file then write it to the properties. I was testing one I found online and it didn't save the properties to the message - or they weren't showing up in file explorer. I was on the road and wasn't sure if it was...

    Get metadata from .msg files saved to local drive

    Those are windows properties - they can be changed but need to use windows shell processes. I don't have any code that can update it.

    How to share calendar categories?

    Interesting. It's usually on the item but no color. Syncing should only be a few minutes - if she can see the item on the shared calendar, the properties of the item (the category) should be there. Can she edit an item on the calendar? In classic Outlook in a subscription: The left is...

    Why oft-file opens as outbox not as draft

    The folder a template is "owned" by is Outbox.... so your second If statement should work on it. If you need to do things to messages legitimately in the outbox, save first. Below is the macro I used for testing - if you open a message that is in the outbox, it is still in the outbox after...

    How to share calendar categories?

    Outlook.com accounts don't have the permissions needed to see / use the owner's categories. She should see the categories as white / no color - but if she adds the category to her category list, they should be in color. No the computer where she can't add new items to your calendar, go into...

    Why oft-file opens as outbox not as draft

    You need to use CreateItemFromTemplate("templatepath"): Dim objApp As Outlook.Application Set objApp = Application Set oMail = objApp .CreateItemFromTemplate("templatepath") As an FYI, you can use Mail.Parent to get the folder name (objItems.Parent returns the subject)

    How to transfer Win 10 Outlook to new Windows 11 pc?

    If you want classic outlook on a new computer, you need to install it - i recommend using the download, not the store version. Have not tried the download for offline install, but if you have office installed, the outlook install is faster IMHO. Classic Outlook missing from new computers You...

    Legacy Microsoft Outlook for Mac Support will end in Oct 2025

    When you use parallels, you are using a virtual windows computer. Parallels has a ready to use virtual Windows machine but it does not have a Windows software license. It will work unlicensed.

    Legacy Microsoft Outlook for Mac Support will end in Oct 2025

    parallels is probably better if you are intimidated - they have a ready to use windows image to use. it says unlicensed but should continue to work without a license. (I should test that - I had a spare license I used for it - stacksocial often has low cost windows licenses available.)

    Nasty Bug Lurking In Outlook For Years. The Trigger. Any Fix Or Workaround?

    That indicates it's a problem with the MAPI API. If the cause is the MAPI API, its not related to the GAL.

    Trouble sending large files to a email group but can to the individuals in that group

    As an FYI - if the other division is in the same Microsoft tenant as this, it shouldn't be a problem as it doesn't leave the tenant. I just checked - no, DLs don't have limits, only mailboxes - You've ran this PowerShell to check all the mailboxes? $mb= Get-Mailbox -ResultSize unlimited...
