Yes I was using the app password when I was attempting to get POP working. It accepted the one you referred to, on the Yahoo/Security page. And Outlook was happy with it, and it passed the Outlook "check settings". and while the account could send email, it was never able to receive any. When...

Since I made those changes to my rules, I've not had any problems with the junk mail filter. Thanks, Diane!

A friend of mine had been using Outlook 365 to access her Cox email, which had last year been outsourced to Yahoo. She liked POP protocol. Then it stopped getting email on Jan 14. I tried deleting the account and re installing. Then the same for the profile. Then I uninstalled/reinstalled...

I was surprised to hear you say, if I understood correctly, that Safe Senders can still be sent to Junk by rules. I only have 3 rules on that Inbox. Based on what you have suggested, one of them is suspect. It looks for "line of credit" or "loc" in the subject and body. I can see now that "loc"...

Could my ISP move it to Junk folder? I was concerned my email host, Hostgator, might be doing it. But I tested that suspicion by only having the Hostgator webmail open - no phone or Outlook. Then sent myself an email from there. It appeared in the Inbox. I waited a minute or two. Then I opened...

Outlook 2021 LTSC is occasionally putting emails I send to myself, as well as emails from my wife, into the Junk folder. I've turned off the Outlook Spam Filtering (see attachment) Both emails are in the Outlook Contacts. I've also put our email addresses into the Safe Senders tab. I've also...

On my wife's Windows 10 with Outlook 2024, using IMAP, I noticed that Carbonite was stuck trying to back up a file called NewProfile~1.srs. I found out that it was a new Outlook profile created 2 days ago. But not by my wife or myself. And when I went into Control Panel I found that indeed...

I'm using Outlook 2021 so a different version than you. But mine always sends new emails from whatever inbox I am in at the moment. I found a setting related to this. Make sure it is unchecked.

OK I will do that. Thank you

I've got a friend who uses Gmail and has 10,000 emails in her Inbox, all organized using Labels and Categories. It is her record of 10 years of managing a girls' volleyball club. I want to back them up for her. I was thinking of using Outlook. But is there anyway that her Labels and Categories...

Thanks I'll use that on my wife's Outlook. My Outlook has never shown that button. Maybe because I have Office LTSC 2021

On my Win 11 laptop i had an icon appear a couple of weeks ago, I think on the taskbar but might have been a pop up bubble, saying something like the "the latest update to your Outlook is ready to be downloaded". I ignored it and went into Settings and deleted the new Outlook again. (which i had...

Thanks for all the info. I'll be setting it up sometime in the next week or two, I expect. I'll report back my findings.

I will be setting up a new Win 11 computer for a friend. We will be buying Office 2021 desktop on Amazon and I need to import as much as possible from the existing Outlook 2010. I believe the two email accounts are both IMAP, and I think years ago I set her up with a .pst file for use as the...

Yes I meant System Settings.

Not sure if it will help since it is quirky, but try Settings/Ease of Access - move the text slider

OK thanks. I will check that if/when it fails again.

After installing iCloud from the Microsoft Store in Office 365 on Windows 10, the calendar sync runs ok for about a week or two. Then it fails - Outlook will open briefly, for about 1 second, then shut itself down. The only way to get it working is to start Outlook in safe mode, uncheck the...

I read this today on Woody's, Susan Bradley said: Outlook search issues If you use the desktop version of Outlook, you may have noticed that after the installation of the December updates, Outlook search stopped working (Microsoft note). The January updates have not fixed this issue. Although...
