The New Outlook Notifications for email with rules not working. Missing features
I have to use the New Outlook to be prepared for the eventuality when Microsoft forces the change. I'm missing notifications for emails coming in when it has mailbox rules to organize it. The Notification Center in Windows is ok, but there should be a way in the rules to set a notification in a window like the Reminders window. being able to set a specific sound would be beneficial as well. I've had to resort to using Categories and constantly checking Outlook to see if I missed anything. This has resulted in missing many time-sensitive alerts and emails. Such as a Midnight internet outage at a business-critical building on my day off. Resulting in 6 hours of downtime during business rather than a resolution before business opening.Scott_J945Jun 06, 2026Copper Contributor3.7KViews3likes3CommentsIssues with outlook and teams on android
I'm not sure why, but since yesterday both Teams and Outlook have quit working. I have an S25 Ultra. I attempted to clear data and cache and do a fresh install. Outlook just hangs on a black screen with the notification "optimizing database," and Teams just indefinitely loads. I can't check my personal email or my work email and can't keep track of my work chats on Teams.powerboatJun 05, 2026Copper Contributor4.3KViews0likes6CommentsNew desktop outlook do not show incoming message in conversation

I have been trying to move to the new Outlook for over a year, but I always end up having to revert to Classic Outlook. The new Outlook is slow, particularly when opening windows, and some features appear to have been designed to look modern rather than to be practical. The design also makes it difficult to work efficiently: there are too many colours, the visibility of important information is poor, and the overall experience feels more like using the web app than a proper desktop application. There are also functional issues. For example, Quick Steps do not always work correctly when emails are grouped. Today I missed a Zoom call because I could not click the meeting link in the location field. I also could not copy the link or even view the full URL. This was the final issue for me. In my opinion, Microsoft should reconsider the direction of the new Outlook and instead invest in improving Classic Outlook by making it faster and reducing its memory usage. That should be the priority before adding more new features. It is frustrating to buy a laptop with a large amount of memory only for much of it to be consumed by WhatsApp, Teams, Outlook, and other Microsoft tools. Please focus on optimising existing applications before introducing flashier features and AI functionality that often clutter the screen rather than improve productivity.EvanCamilleriJun 05, 2026Copper Contributor24Views0likes0CommentsIMAP connection error INVALIDCREDENTIALS
I am trying to add my external IMAP mailbox from my hosting provider (Easyhost.be) to the new Outlook app / Outlook.com. However, when I try to add this mailbox to my domain 'vinedo.be', I immediately receive the error message: INVALIDCREDENTIALS INTERACTIONREQUIRED. In the classic Outlook desktop app, the account works immediately via IMAP with exactly the same password. Everything also works perfectly with the Outlook app on an Android smartphone. There appears to be an incorrect tenant attribution or cache in the background of the Microsoft Cloud that is internally blocking authentication for the domain vinedo.be. Could you clear the cache/tenant attribution for the domain vinedo.be so that the IMAP connection is routed externally again? The mailbox email address removed for privacy reasons was hosted by Gandi.net until recently. This is presumably causing the problem.MVdMJun 04, 2026Copper Contributor15Views0likes0CommentsYou’ve tried to sign in too many attempts with incorrect password or account .
For 3 weeks now every time I try to sign in I get that message but account and password is correct, I have reached out to chat support every day for a fix have even done all trouble shooting steps multiple times a week. I recently got told that it is a known issue with the server and it is at Microsoft ends but there is no time line to fix it. It’s know become a joke that I’ve been locked out for 3 weeks with no help .Kirst25Jun 04, 2026Copper Contributor59Views0likes5CommentsUnable to sync my iPhone to my Outlook 2019 anymore
I can’t sync my Outlook 2019 calendar and contacts to my iPhone on my Lenovo Windows 11 Computer anymore. For years I have been using iTunes to sync my phone but recently, for some unknown reason, iTunes quit recognizing my computer and all attempts to reauthorize it failed. My research into this situation told me that Apple is phasing out iTunes in favor of Apple Devices and Apple Music. Apple Devices does not sync my Contacts or Calendar. Also, for some reason my Outlook Data files are .OST files instead of .PST. I don’t know why this is because I am not on an Exchange and my Office 2019 is a stand-alone. The .OST format seems to be causing problems with any solution I have been able to find. Even iCloud cant sync them. Can anybody help me get my iPhone to sync my calendar and contacts because I use it all the time?dldorgerJun 04, 2026Copper Contributor18Views0likes1CommentProblem adding IMAP email account to Outlook on Android
I am trying to add a couple of IMAP email accounts to Outlook on Android. Both are for my own domain, and I already have both added to Outlook on my windows laptop without any issues. One of the emails, "name@ domain . com" is added without any problems on Android, but my catch-all email, "*@ domain . com" will not add, and constantly gives the "check email/password" error. This email works with Outlook on my windows PC, and with other email apps on Android. I suspect the problem is due to the *@ domain address, but my email provider says it should work with Outlook, and it already works on Windows Outlook. Has anyone seen this before?

I'm not sure who Microsoftoutlook decided to place the number of unread messages right next to the folder name, but they clearly don't use Outlook with multiple email addresses and multiple subfolders taking automatically filed emails. It is now so much more effort to quick scan the folders for unread email. Please have a word with yourself! Rant over :-) Please can you make the position an option. While you are at it, please add font size and colour options for all folders with options to change when containing new email. Thanks!DrTomJun 03, 2026Copper Contributor344Views5likes11CommentsNew Outlook for Macintosh Calendar Crashing
