Email Templates
I've switched over one of my devices to the "New Outlook"....only to discover there is no ability to save an email as a Template? Well not as far as I can see atm at least. I use heaps of email templates in the old Outlook, and they are an incredible time-saver. Am I missing a feature here?GeoffLCSFeb 06, 2025Iron Contributor47Views0likes4CommentsUsing Categories in Outlook
We use Categories in Outlook to have emails assigned to different people in our team. In the new Outlook the Categories are now inbedded in the subject line which is not very convenient for us in the way we are using the Categories. Is there a way to have it shown e.g. beside the Flag and also showing the colour of the Category instead of the Category´s name?johan_sormanFeb 06, 2025Copper Contributor324Views1like2CommentsAssign a Task - Microsoft Outlook
Good Evening Everyone! Need your help on a really specific issue regarding task assignment on microsoft outlook. First, i classify my emails as "conversation" for a better tracking and follow-up, and to make sure that I always have a full picture of the discussion before answering. For those who know, this "conversation" features works with the email subject. So if i change anything on the subject, outlook will create a new conversation. My issue with task assignment is that it adds: "RE: " to the subject of all task assigned, and therefore creates a lot of new conversation in my inbox. I would like the subject to remain exactly the same as the email / conversation field. Is that possible and how to do it? Thanks for your helpChristophe_De_SpevillFeb 06, 2025Copper Contributor310Views1like5CommentsPublic folders have disappeared in NEW outlook for Mac
Just switched to Microsoft Outlook for Mac version 16.42. Public folders have disappeared and the option is greyed out under tools. if I switch back to the old outlook, the public folders are there again. How do I get them in the new outlook?MiscGrizFeb 05, 2025Copper Contributor54KViews4likes30CommentsRule to only show 3rd email received with same subject
When a report fails, I receive an email notifying me that it failed. The reports will retry twice so I then receive a second and third email. The report doesn’t fully fail until the third email which is when I actually need to take action. Most often a second or third email is never received but with hundreds of reports it would be nice to only receive the third email on my inbox to remove some noise and make it easier to highlight when I need to take action. All three emails will be from the same sender, with the same subject, and received within 60 minutes of each other. I’d love the first two emails to move to a different folder and the third email stay in my inbox. I’ve spent a lot of time trying to configure a rule for this but no luck. Any tips?Solvedmathewsn04Feb 05, 2025Copper Contributor17Views0likes1CommentOutlook Offline Phase I: Available Features
The following are some of the key features introduced in Outlook Offline Phase I: Offline Email Access: Users can now read, reply to, and compose new emails offline. These actions will be synchronized once the user reconnects to the Internet. Calendar Management: Users can view only their calendar events without an internet connection. Contact Access: Access to contacts is available offline, allowing users to look up contact information. Synchronization: Any offline changes, such as sending emails, updating calendar events, or modifying contact information, will automatically synchronize once the internet connection is restored. Unsupported Features While Outlook Offline Phase I brings a host of new functionalities, it is important to note that not all features are supported in the offline mode - yet. I recommend downloading the updated list of supported and unsupported features to ensure you have the most up-to-date information on what is supported and what is not.

Hi everyone, I got a user who found that her print preview was weirdly formatted and after a bit of research I found that she had non-breaking space characters instead of regular spaces in her mails. The issue is that it seems to be a kind of "by default" behavior for her when composing a new mail since she did not do that on purpose (by inputting the related key combination). The only workaround I found at the moment is telling her to copy and paste with "text-only" option to have regular spaces inserted instead of non-breaking ones. Does anyone know how this can be fixed ? Important note : macros are disabled by default in my organization so I can't craft some weird VBA script to fix this (and yes I tried since I am running out of ideas).SolvedLoïcFeb 04, 2025Brass Contributor37Views0likes6CommentsCan't collapse all groups in new Outlook?
Hi, I just downloaded the new Outlook app to try and I don't see a way to collapse all groups nor could I find anything in the help menu. Is this not possible with the new version? I have a lot of email in my accounts so this is concerning and I'm hoping that I'm just missing something. Since this will likely be a mandatory upgrade I would like to know. Thanks in advance.roblinbFeb 04, 2025Copper Contributor25KViews1like26CommentsOutlook New Feature: Record a Video Message
I thoroughly tested Outlook's latest feature, Record a Video Message While in Outlook. It is a nice feature for a more effective communication method. I have created a video explaining the following: Before pressing record When to create a video vs a typed message How Outlook desktop handles storing the video message to OneDrive for primary and secondary accounts During Recording Review the recorder console and available settings and effects (teleprompter, text, stickers, filters, board, etc.) Review and Edit Recording Many users are asking, "Where is the Save Button?"
