Using New Outlook with an iCloud Account
I have started using the New Outlook. The first account I added was my iCloud account. The Calendar mapped fine from iCloud, but the Contacts have wrong characters and errors. These do not appear in iCloud.com or in my Outlook 2019, which uses iCloud for Windows. How can I fix this?msqueryFeb 15, 2025Occasional Reader6Views0likes0CommentsIs Microsoft trying to get people scammed? New Outlook is insideous.
The new outlook was forced on me a couple of days ago. I've got some decent gripes with it but the biggest issue I have is it seems to be funneling less astute users to getting scammed. The first issue is the ads. Each account has an AD at the top of the list of messages that could easily be mistaken as an email. I originally felt I was okay ignoring them - it's just part of the deal. But, the ad I saw and clicked on today was 100% a scam site and preys on people that are susceptible to fraudulent endorsements of famous people. In this case it was Trudeau (Canadian Prime Minister) endorsing a way to get thousands of tax dollars back. It is the same template I've seen with other notable names (Bill Gates, Warren Buffet, Elon Musk, etc...). Here is the link for those who may be sceptical. It is 100% bs: https://profgenpro.click/landers/pensupca_zeno/?domain=cdn.dripvoice.com&clickid=003f4wha8hevrdc1&uclick=wha8q5vr&uclickhash=wha8q5vr-wha8hevr-g63y-0-ciq5-b7xo-b78p-bcbb7c Secondly, hovering over hyperlinks in the new outlook doesn't display the actual URL anymore. It is the #1 thing I ALWAYS do when I see an email mentioning a bank transaction, package delivery, or anything that might seem relevant. What on earth are these people thinking!Synnical77Feb 15, 2025Copper Contributor448Views1like3CommentsStill receiving emails from blocked domain
Hello, For the past two months I have been reporting and blocking every email that comes from mailjetzky, yet for some reason every one of their emails still comes through. On outlook (see images attached) it clearly says "Blocking a sender or domain will stop their email coming to your mailbox". But this doesn't work one bit... this isn't the only domain that I'm still receiving emails from after blocking them. Looking on Reddit many people have been going through the same thing https://old.reddit.com/r/AskUK/comments/1hmtcmz/are_you_getting_loads_of_emails_with_the_address/ Please can someone guide me as to how to fix this issue with outlook, as the report and block button, should, report and block the domain from contacting me in any way shape or form....AnOutlookUserFeb 15, 2025Occasional Reader35Views0likes0CommentsI need to print an entire email thread, not one email at a time.

Hello I work in an office where we work from assigned inboxes. Everyone has it set up that you have to double click on an email to open it (so that no one opens one accidentally). I also have this set up for which is working. HOWEVER, when i click ONCE on an unread, go to do something else, and go back to it, it has opened it! Can someone please advise as people in the office will start getting annoyed with me and i'm new 🥹😭.

Hello, I’m experiencing an issue with Outlook LTSC 2024 where mailbox names are missing in the Favorites section of the folder pane. When I add a folder (e.g., the Inbox) from a shared mailbox to my Favorites, it only shows as "Inbox" without the associated mailbox name. For example: On my own system, I see "Inbox - email address removed for privacy reasons" in Favorites. For the affected user, it just displays "Inbox." This creates confusion as the user has access to many shared mailboxes, so the Favorites list ends up with multiple "Inbox" entries without any way to distinguish which mailbox they belong to. Steps Taken: Cached Exchange Mode: Verified this is turned off. New Profile: Created a new Outlook profile. The issue persists across all profiles for the user. Different Computer: The user logged into a different computer with the same Outlook version and settings as mine. The issue followed them, indicating it’s likely tied to their mailbox or Exchange settings. Auto-Mapping: Verified that auto-mapping is working. Folder Renaming: The "Rename Folder" option is greyed out and unavailable. Reset Views: Folder views have been reset to defaults, but the problem persists. Outlook Updates: Confirmed that Outlook is fully patched. Environment Details: Outlook LTSC 2024 (fully patched) Exchange Online (auto-mapping enabled for shared mailboxes) Cached Exchange Mode is disabled Questions: Is there a specific setting in Exchange or Outlook that forces mailbox names to appear in the Favorites section? Are there any additional registry settings or configurations that I might have missed? Has anyone else experienced this issue, and if so, how was it resolved? I’ve exhausted most of the common troubleshooting steps and would greatly appreciate any advice or solutions. Thank you!SolvedTomGignacFeb 13, 2025Copper Contributor35Views0likes3Comments[SEMI-CRITICAL] Outlook rules aren't working when email encoding system is different
(First, note that I am a Korean, and my report may use a different term for the system because it's tedious to figure out the original term for what I am using. I believe you know the vibe I am talking about.) I figured using different character encoding system may result in failing outlook rules working. Basically, it appears Outlook is using UTF-8 based, but sometimes emails from other organisations use different. Let me show 2 receiver cases: To: =?utf-8?B?7ZmN6ri464+Z?= <johndoe@secret.secret> To: =?ks_c_5601-1987?B?yKux5rW/?= <johndoe@secret.secret> This is what you can see from an email header, and left encoded characters are a name of a person, and obviously right bracket ones are their email. You can see it uses different encoding system. Both are encoded from "홍길동" (this is identical to a random guy name as much as how john doe is.) We can guess the name of this outlook user is obviously "홍길동" and their email address is johndoe@secret.secret When you choose a rule [When an email has my name], the rule system will only work to the first case, the UTF-8 encoded one. It appears the rule [When an email has my name] only checks if an email has "?utf-8?B?7ZmN6ri464+Z?", but doesn't check "?ks_c_5601-1987?B?yKux5rW/?". However, both cases should work because both are their name. The only solution for this is adjusting senders' email system to use UTF-8 only, but that is not possible. Thus it fails checking those conditions. I am pretty sure this is why people have been complaining outlook rules doesn't work for years. I want rules having more possible case checks... but I have no idea where I can suggest this.spacelizardFeb 13, 2025Copper Contributor20Views0likes0Comments
