Office outlook 365 .. where are emails saved?
I have office outlook (not the desktop version), i.e. https://outlook.office.com/mail/ After hours of searching I have found no way to save/export all my emails to a new computer. The office outlook does not have any export function even for the archive folder. The new computer has a 365 desktop outlook.
There needs to be a way to disable the Editor for Outlook.
Let me first offer a preemptive apology about the tone of this post. I rarely get this aggravated over a feature. The Editor, which provides "refinements" like conciseness, clarity, etc., is possibly the most infuriating, useless, piece of garbage I've ever had to experience. Let us walk through this experience. - Ahh, time to respond to an email. As a human who has interacted with this human I am responding to and understand our rapport and level of formality, and as someone with a modicum of brain power, I know how to address this person! I know the type of language this person and I use, and I use this to inform how I speak to this person, as I do with anyone. Hmm, type type type. I tell this person, "Alright, looks-" - SOUND THE ALARM. SOUND THE ALARM. Why not "all right"? That's more formal! Enjoy a purple underline. - Uh, I'm fine, thank you. Let me click "Ignore". - Okay, I'll remove the purple underline! *2 seconds later* Why not "all right"? That's more formal! Enjoy a purple underline. - I said I'm fine, thank you. "Ignore". - Okay, I'll remove the purple underline! *2 seconds later* Why not "all right"? That's more formal! Enjoy a purple underline. - PLEASE STOP. Let me click "more options". Oh! Let's click "Stop checking for this." - What? I didn't hear you. I can't stop checking for this, you've committed a cardinal sin in email etiquette! Keep the purple underline to remind yourself what a terrible emailer you are. - Goodness, okay. I'll just keep writing then. - You IDIOT! Did you mean "investigated" instead of "looked into"? It's more letters and syllables, but its less words, and we CANNOT have two words when we could have one! - No, stop doi- - "Play things by ear"? Did you mean "playthings", moron? Playthings is one word! I bet after you send this email you'll go back to your playthings because you're a stupid child that can't write! I have seen elsewhere that there are certain aspects of this under my control (such as the tone of writing casual/formal, although I can't find this fix on Outlook). But from my searching, there is absolutely no way to turn these off or permanently remove the underlines. And even if there is, the product is terrible enough whether or not it is optional. As someone with ADHD and OCD, this is beyond distracting, and at times genuinely debilitating to my productivity when my email is littered with useless underlines. It is also extremely insulting to the user to assume that they MUST have their hand held, and to assume that these automatic, often terrible, suggestions should take precedence over their human judgement. I cannot fathom why people would create a product so revolting and FORCE it upon users. It has created such a hostile email writing environment that I now have to just draft emails in a notepad and paste them into Outlook. If you want this much control over what I write, why not just let an AI summarize everything I write after I send and spit it out in your sanitized Copilot writing style of preference? Let's just remove the human from everything.
Classic outlook - Teams add-in not loading
We recently had a partner experience an issue that is causing the teams add-in feature to not load properly in classic outlook when creating a new meeting. For some background info, we are using a Virtual environment within remote desktop running windows 11. Our servers are provided by AWS. The issue only began as recently as December, as far as we can ascertain with the customers information. I have noticed this issue occurs with numerous partners but is inconsistent, as some load and others do not. I followed troubleshooting steps such as an uninstall/reinstall, verifying the load behavior in the registry was set to 3, and tried to re-register the related teams.addinLoader.dll. A colleague did implement a script to the environment task scheduler that will run every time outlook is launched to re-install that add-in as a break fix, but this still requires closing outlook and reloading it to work. I was curious if anyone else had encountered this within remote desktop with classic outlook, and if they had any success in fixing it. The easiest thing, obviously, is moving over to new outlook since teams' integration is native, but we have some that prefer classic. Though, with it being retired in 2029 it may be worth starting the move away while in a remote environment.Outlook Not Syncing
Outlook is not syncing my emails properly. New emails are not coming, and sometimes sent emails stay in the outbox. I also get connection or server error messages. I have checked my internet connection and restarted Outlook, but the problem still continues. Please suggest how to fix this issue.
Login not possible
Since the beginning of the year, I have had the problem that I cannot log into my email account via Outlook. I have contacted Microsoft support several times, and they have repeatedly told me to contact Outlook support directly, but I am unable to do so. I have already cleared my cache several times and tried using other browsers. I have also tried incognito modes, as well as using my cell phone. Whenever I try to log in, I get the following error message: That's why I hope that someone here can help me somehow.

Outlook Deleting Certain Email Before Delivering to my Mailbox (Not Even Going to Junk)
Hi, I've been trying to troubleshoot this issue for 4 months now. I have become aware that since at least May, 2025, there are some emails which are not making it to my mailbox (neither by inbox or even my junk), Outlook is preventing them from being delivered (or perhaps deleting them before they show up to my mailbox). I have tried changing my Junk email settings, I have tried adding senders who have sent me email (e.g. verification codes from travel booking sites) to my safe senders list or contacts list but nothing is working. This has caused major issues to me, as I'm not seeing vital emails. How do I troubleshoot/solve this? Thanks
Outlook Desktop ignores or inactivates From address in programmatically generated files
I’m programmatically generating emails using Python within a Flask application. These emails are intended to be sent from a shared mailbox via the desktop Outlook application. In the code, the From: field is explicitly set to the shared email address (e.g. email address removed for privacy reasons). The application generates and downloads an .eml file, which is then opened in Outlook for review and manual sending. However, when the .eml file is opened in Outlook, one of two undesired behaviors occurs: The From field automatically switches to my individual default user email, ignoring the shared email specified in the code The From field visually displays the shared email, but Outlook treats it as not actually selected / not connected, and the email cannot be sent. In this case, manually selecting a different From address and then re-selecting the shared email allows the message to send successfully. In other words, even when the shared email appears in the From field, Outlook does not seem to treat it as an active or authenticated selection unless it is manually toggled. Has anyone encountered this behavior and have suggestions on how to rectify? Thank you!
Outlook Classic problem setting up Group Contact list
I have successfully imported a csv file into Outlook classic, but when I try to set up a Group Contact list, it puts email addresses into BOTH the Name section and the email section. How do I get it to put the actual names in the Name section. The names show correctly in the address list, but don't transfer to the Group Contact list.Change of Meeting Location
When a meeting has been sent in the past, an update/change of the meeting location (eg. another meeting room) forces the user to re-accept again the meeting. Seems more logic that the users who already accepted the meeting, stay on "Accepted" and are not moved to "Didn't respond". Thx for updating.
