Recognition Tool for Outlook?
Hi community, Our HR team noticed that we could really benefit from integrating recognition and praise into Outlook, since it does serve as this sort of secondary communication channel for us, the first being Teams. Is Microsoft's Praise a good option? Can we connect it to Outlook? Or does anyone use a third-party app that fits in smoothly?
Nuevo formato mensaje para borrar los elementos eliminados.
Nuevo formato mensaje para borrar los elementos eliminados en Outlook Office16. Hasta hace pocos días cuando aparecia este mensaje el puntero del ratón se quedaban apuntando a autorizar el borrado (SI). Ahora con el nuevo formato el punreto no lo hace y tengo que desplazarlo para ponerlo encima del "SI". No se si se puede solucionar eso.

Hi everyone, I am using Outlook with a professional email address connected to my website/domain, and I want to better understand how profile information works for this type of account. I am specifically trying to know: Where Outlook pulls profile details from for a custom domain email Whether profile information is managed in Outlook, Microsoft account settings, or Microsoft 365 admin settings Which profile details are visible to recipients when sending emails Whether there is a way to personalize the account profile for a more professional appearance I am looking for guidance especially for accounts using a domain-based business/professional email rather than a regular personal Outlook address. Thanks in advance.

After Winter, the New Outlook Desktop client is coming ;-) This new Outlook 365 client will kindly but surely be pushed by Microsoft for customers with a 365 license to install the Office 365 suite. In some configuration, users have the Office 365 suite but use the current Outlook client (Version 2510 Click to run ) to connect to Exchange SE servers because, for regulatory reasons, mailboxes must be based on the national territory. I am therefore wondering about the Microsoft support policy for customers using both the office click to run suite with 0365 features and eventually the famous and new Outlook client connected to the Exchange Subscriber Edition environment Will this situation be technically supported by Microsoft or will it be necessary for these clients specifically to use another Outlook Desktop client than the one provided in the ClickToRun suite?

Hi, We use a specific m365 account for email blasts...and have 10 contact groups withing that account (and not a distro from m365), each contact group has a limit of 1000 contacts (limitation from microsoft), so we have 10 such groups as we send out to about 9000 people total (and microsoft has a limit of sending 10,000 emails per day per account). Issue is a lot of times we get undeliverables because people in the groups either no longer work there or whatever...so its tough to clean up. Is there a better way to do this? 1. For the contact groups itself? I thought a out creating a distro in m365 but then I have to add the 900p contacts into our tenant which would be annoying 2. Sending the blasts (without a crm or something like constant contact) 3.managing the lists from undeliverables undeliverables undeliverable Thanks all.Emails to self considered JUNK, no way to fix unless... (partial solution enclosed)
Any email that I send to myself, from one of my outlook emails, gets classified as JUNK and put in the junk folder with the other 600 junk mails a day. I try to mark it as not junk in the app or in edge and it will NOT allow me to do that. It will not allow me to make a rule or fix it. What does work: Go into your android phone and use the outlook ap. Simply mark it as "Not Junk" and it will take. Android gets the job done. Microsoft will not. WHY would Microsoft classify email from my address as junk and not allow it to be fixed?
Bizarre Yahoo Mail Connection Problem
I have Outlook 365 installed on two Windows 11 Pro PCs. Latest updates. On one PC, I can use Outlook 365 as a mail client for my Yahoo mail account using the "old" interface, No issues. On the other PC, Outlook 365 also used to work as a Yahoo Mail client but started having connection issues. I've tried everything under the run to reconnect Outlook 365 to Yahoo Mail - no dice. This includes completely uninstalling and trying to reinstall Outlook 365. Here is where it gets bizarre. If I switch to the "new interface" the Yahoo Mail account shows up and connects. Switch back to the old interface, Yahoo Mail disappears. I hate the new interface and need Outlook 365 to work on this second PC the same way it works on the first one. Any ideas? Thanks!
Performance Reviews & Surveys over Outlook?
Hi Community A bit of an odd question this one. Our HR team started realizing we rely on Outlook a lot for communication sometimes even more than Teams (Oddly enough). We are planning to send our regular anonymous employee engagement surveys and maybe our annual reviews through Outlook. Does anyone have any experience with surveys and review forms inside Outlook? Do you embed Microsoft Forms?Outlook for Mac, 365, Contact List

How to import 365 Web Outlook emails to a desktop 365 Outlook?
I already posted this question: https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/discussions/outlookgeneral/office-outlook-365-where-are-emails-saved/4496424 Which explains my problem not being able to add another account to my desktop 365 Outlook. Do you need me to reiterate here?Attachments to calendar events
I have outlook version 16.106.1 and for some reason the attach file icon is not active. Can I get some advice on how I can activate this so I can add attachments to events I schedule in my calendar. I don't seem to be able to even copy over emails to scheduled events. Any advice appreciated.Lost access to old Microsoft hotmail after alias change
Hello, I had an old Microsoft email address (hotmail) that I used to register my Microsoft account here. I have just logged in here using the new alias email address. So, I added a new alias email address and made it primary. After that, I somehow removed or lost access to my old email address. Cant see it or make it primary. Microsoft Authenticator on my phone still shows my old email on top but works for this new e-mail address. However, external websites (for example Booking.com) probably still send login verification codes to my old email address, which I no longer have access to. I need assistence with restoring access to my old Microsoft email address, or re-activating it as an alias, or getting official confirmation that the old address is permanently deleted. Please advise on what can be done. Thank you.Outlook lock screen widgets not available on iOS
Hoping that someone can point me towards a forward looking statement / roadmap insight that shows that Microsoft will bring lock screen widgets for iOS to Outlook. This has been an odd oversight for more years than it should, more specifically it’s the lack of a calendar widget that is most frustrating. Apple Mail, Spark, Fantastical, Calendar 5, Widget Smith & many more all offer this core experience feature. What is most surprising, even Excel and PowerPoint, both have Lock Screen widgets (as does Edge, Co Pilot and To Do), so surely the main calendar app should? Sadly I can’t use the setup my M365 account in native mail or other calendar apps, because of corporate security policy forcing only Outlook, else I’d use the native Calendar.App widgets. Any other work arounds that folks have found? Thanks in advance.Failed to send emails to outlook/hotmail recipients, returns error 550 5.7.515
We are supporting vendor of a public service, the system sends email notifications to patrons every day. The volume is around 20000-25000 emails per day. Recently, our mail server got large amount of bounced back emails (around 25%) that were not able to deliver to patrons with hotmail/outlook/live/msn email account. From the returned "Diagnostic-Code: smtp;550 5.7.515", understand that it's because of the requirement of SPF (Pass), DKIM (Fail) and DMARC (Pass) authentication. However, currently our email infrastructure can't support the change of DKIM configuration. Can we request Microsoft to add our domain in whitelist and allow us to send emails to notify our patrons? Any way to contact hotmail/outlook/live/msn postmaster? Please advise, thanks.Can Outlook email be corrupt on the Microsoft Server
Good day, I am not sure where to post this, hopefully this is the right spot. I have a free Outlook email address that has server as my primary personal email since day dot. Today it has stopped sending and receiving email. I have tried on my mobile via the Outlook email client and another non Microsoft client and also on my computer using Outlook app. When I try to access it via web browser it either displays an http 500 error or just sits there doing nothing. I have setup another outlook email account and this works fine in all clients and browser. I have tried calling Microsoft on the support line and the automated bot asked me what device I am using, I said Microsoft PC, she said she didn't understand me, so I said android mobile, she said she didn't understand me, kindly suggested I ask support via the web and hung up on me. I can't get onto chat, the web sends me around in circles. Hmm, but I digress. I guess my question is whether it is possible there could be corruption at Microsoft server end and, if so, how would I go about getting it corrected so that I can send and receive emails again? I also noticed checking for subscriptions in Outlook Desktop it just hangs, it doesn't show Microsoft 365, which it does with the other email address I created. Any help whatsoever would be greatly appreciated. PS I have tried repairing the Outlook file but as suspected that's not the issue as it is I can't connect via web browser access directly to the outlook server either or on another client email app. Thank you.Can no longer clear Outlook calendar
I use Outlook on my laptop (not the web version) and recently have been trying the new Outlook desktop, although I still use both. I like to send my calendar from work (on a work laptop) to myself at home as an exported *.csv so that I can see my work calendar events on my personal calendar, and I use the outlook.com service for my personal calendar and email. I used to be able to clear my old calendar on old outlook by switching to list view, selecting everything with ctrl A and then deleting. I could then import the *.csv file and create my entire calendar at home. This isn't working at all well anymore. I can still do this with classic Outlook, but somehow this has set a "different" calendar in the new Outlook. In other words, I see a calendar in the New Outlook that I don't see in Outlook classic (for the exact same account at outlook.com). It's just all fouled up. Does Microsoft have any sort of support for their outlook.com service whatsoever because it just seems like they don't remotely care or support it. Gene
