    Indexing

    Thanks Diane. Yes indeed, it seems indexing hardly makes sense now. One way or the other it seemed to have been working fine not so long ago...(?) I did a clean Windows 1709 and Office 2016 install, a week or two ago. I have done a rebuild 3-4 times now, not touching the pc during that...

    Indexing

    Up front, I know, this question sounds a little bit silly, but I am a bit puzzled. Outlook indexing status says that there is nothing more to be indexed, i.e. all has been completed. I use multiple account and multiple .pst files I select search all when performing a search. As an example I...

    Backup Office settings - registry key

    Hi Diane, A Very Happy New Year To You! I would like to ask you: if I were to save the entire registry of HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Outlook and given that the datafiles (.pst) are located at the same place, but Office is installed from scratch and I were to apply the...

    Adding a new account - "CompanyL (none)" line is added

    I have imported a list from Excel, just firstname, lastname and phonenumber. This into a separate .pst This list merely serves to be imported to my phone: the phonebook of my phone 'reads' the contacts from this separate .pst file. Okay, that's fine so far. What I have been doing until now is...

    How to display number of items per .pst file

    Diane, I didn't get any errors, just a blank mail was created and there it stopped. So, start macro, select inbox + 'OK'. Result: blank mail. As said, I don't have knowledge of macro's/VBA. Nonetheless I checked the script (abacadabra for me) but noticed 'MAPIFolder' showing up a few times...

    How to display number of items per .pst file

    Thank you both. @Maxjackman001 - regretfully nothing happens whilst running the Powershell script. Seems it isn't verified for Windows 10. Also I am running POP3 with PST files. Probably the script is meant for Exchange only. @Diane - many thanks. Regretfully, same as what Jamie Klein on the...

    How to display number of items per .pst file

    Is there an easy way to display the total number of items (so, inbox, sent, drafts, etc.) per email account, i.e. per .pst file. I have multiple email accounts (different domains, Outlook, Gmail, 2 local providers, a number of archive .pst-files). Right now, I have to go thru all the separate...

    Outlook Web Access - how to disable spam filter

    Thanks Diane. As for on my pc, with Office 2016, I am using a 3rd party tool, named Mailwasher. Am using it over 15 years now and it is doing an outstanding job. Using spamcop.net and sbl-xbl.spamhouse.org Never see any spam landing in Outlook. As a matter of fact, in case of doubt, I can do a...

    Outlook Web Access - how to disable spam filter

    Yes, there is a 22 page conversion on https://goo.gl/nGCGY1 with many frustrated people. I really wonder whether at all Microsoft is looking into these forums. Probably not, or probably only the words from experts (MVPs, etc) may carry some weight.

    Extracting all mail addresses from all folders

    Hi Diane, Sorry for the confusion, but it involves the receivers email addresses, not the senders. Specifically I often receive mails with multiple names in the 'To:' field. I want to extract those. I am afraid I would not know where to put the above code in the script. Using Outlook 2016/POP3...

    Extracting all mail addresses from all folders

    Later: I believe also the default solution, i.e. File->Open->Import/Export, does not offer to export the real email address, instead it also export the 'alias' only, i.e. the name of the person, not the email address. Regretfully so.

    Extracting all mail addresses from all folders

    Many thanks Diane. Many of the mails include a list of email addresses (not hidden, not in a BCC field, or something). The email addresses show up in the 'To:' field Basically it is just a 'one-off' session, so to say. As for VBA - I am not familiar with that, to be honest. At best I may...
