Is there any update on this issue? Nothing has been posted by Microsoft since early April. My wife is "making do" with New Outlook, but I'd like to be able to switch her back to Classic...
Some additional information just to keep everything in one place.
This bug is apparently also breaking API's or embedded routines that send messages via Outlook.com. My wife and I use Macrium to back up our PC's to our NAS. Macrium is one of the most widely used backup products.
As soon as...
Thanks for your quick response, Diane.
I was encouraged when I saw multiple posts about this error spanning at least 3-4 years. I was discouraged when I discovered that none of the posts provided a solution or workaround. I was encouraged when I went to the Microsoft Support article that you...
Update 2 (Unable to edit OP or first comment) - Attempting to access *any* of the Outlook.com Global Address Lists on *both* of our PC's using (Classic) Outlook *or* (New) Outlook *or* OWA blows an error. The GAL for my wife's <name>@<domain>.com hosted at GoDaddy is accessible.
On my wife's...
Update - Attempting to access the Global Address List on both of our PC's, using either (Classic) Outlook or OWA, throws an error. (As far as I know, but can't see, the GAL is empty.)
My wife and I use (Classic) Outlook via Microsoft 365. We both have multiple email accounts in Outlook. (My wife has two accounts, I have five.) There are no Shared mailboxes.
One of my wife's e-mail accounts is <name>@Outlook.com and the other is <name>@<domain>.com, hosted on an Exchange...
This is exactly the problem. If you request an account recovery e-mail from Google it won't work.
Per Diane's suggestion, you could turn off Safelinks before (re-)requesting the account recovery e-mail. Turning off Safelinks doesn't undo the problem for previous e-mails.
I just punted and...
To protect against malicious web sites, Outlook.com uses Safelinks which adds characters to a URL and converts all 1-byte special characters into 3-byte hex codes.
An account recovery e-mail from Google contains an embedded URL which is very long. When the URL is processed through Safelinks it...
Thanks. Are the bugs I reported in the system or should I turn on Insider and (re)submit them?
Given the increasing bugginess of Microsoft's GA software, would it be that much more risky to just stay on the Slow Ring?
Thanks again.
E.g. the "New Bug" I reported is probably due to something along this integration trail reading Email1/Email2/Email3 and writing Email3/Email1/Email2. This is the type of mistake a high school noob programmer might make and that definitely should have been caught by QA and regression testing.
All updates are installed.
Maybe a little harsh, but after 45 years in IT, software developer, beta tester, etc. and beating my head against a wall trying to report well-documented bugs I do get a little frustrated.
I'm starting to thing that the convenience of integrating Outlook 2016 <==>...

Hi Diane,
Following the months-long winmail.dat debacle, I have been trying to report other bugs that occurred at the same time. There is also one nasty new bug that has recently appeared. I tried posting to a thread on Answers.Microsoft.com that Gabriel Bratton was moderating, but another...
Here's a challenging variation on this problem. My "On Behalf Of" e-mail address isn't a physical address and doesn't have an SMTP server associated with it.
The e-mail address that I use is "John@Smith.Name". ("dot name" is a DNS Top Level Domain that auto-forwards to an actual physical...
