Custom Search Folders in New Outlook
Does anyone know how to create Custom Search Folders in the new Outlook? At this point I only see a couple of standard searches. In the previous version of Outlook used Custom Search Folders: 1. To create a folder of messages with a specific Label 2. To create a folder to find all messages sent on a specific date. Does anyone know if this is possible? Or how I would go about to use the two described filters? At this point I also can't seem to be able to filter the inbox on Label.It’s now easier to access iCloud Mail, Calendar, and Contacts in Outlook
We’re excited to announce that the new Outlook for Windows, Outlook for Mac, and Outlook for iOS and Android now support easier iCloud Mail, Calendar, and Contacts access. You no longer need to create and enter app-specific passwords to access your iCloud data in Outlook apps. Now using the OAuth 2.0 authentication protocol, simply sign in with your Apple Account to access your iCloud Mail, Calendar, and Contacts in Outlook. If you already have iCloud set up in Outlook, in the coming months you will be asked to sign in, which will reauthenticate using the new OAuth 2.0 flow. Availability The ability to access iCloud Mail, Calendar, and Contacts using the new authentication flow is rolling out across the new Outlook for Windows, Outlook for Mac, and Outlook for iOS and Android. If you attempt to access iCloud data and are presented with the previous Basic Authentication flow (prompting for an app-specific password), ensure you’ve updated to the latest Outlook app version and restart Outlook. For classic Outlook for Windows users, we recommend trying the new Outlook for Windows, which provides both the new authentication flow and built-in support for iCloud Mail, Calendar, and Contacts without the need for an Outlook add-in. Feedback We would love to hear from you.

Email sent from Shared Mailbox gets stuck in Outbox
Hello, I am working with a client who has a primary and shared mailbox in Outlook. They are using the newest version of classic Outlook desktop app and they have full permissions to the shared mailbox, including "send as" permissions. They can send email from their primary mailbox without issue. However, when they send email as the shared mailbox, it gets stuck in the Outbox and never sends. I have tried the following: 1. Removing the profiles re-adding 2. Deleting the Outlook data files 3. Reducing cache to as low as 3 months 4. Turning off cache but when I do the shared mailbox gets an error that it cannot connect to the Exchange server 5. Turning on auto-archive to shrink the data files 6. Switching to "New Outlook". This does seem to work but the company uses a plug-in for a program called "Mail Manager" and they don't fully support New Outlook yet Sometimes these solutions will fix the issue for a few days to a week but then it begins happening again. This issue does not happen when they are using the mobile or web clients. To me this sounds like a corrupted data file but I can't pinpoint what exactly is causing the corruption. Any suggestions? Thanks, Mike
Sync New Outlook with iCloud Calendar
I just got a new laptop and am trying to sync the New Outlook Calendar with my iCloud Calendar. The intent is to have any Calendar changes made on one device (iPad, iPhone, laptop) to sync to all device Calendars. The problem I'm having is that iCloud Calendar only synchs with Outlook (Classic) and I want to sync with New Outlook. The Outlook version is 1.2025.1121.100 ; the Outlook Client Version is 20251128003.09 The list of Apps that comes up after clicking on Start shows both Outlook and Outlook (Classic). If I right click on Outlook (Classic) and click on uninstall (thought that might help fix this), the only Outlook listed in Apps > Installed Apps is Outlook. I did not uninstall Outlook. To set-up Calendar synching I opened iCloud > Calendars and Contacts > Calendars and Contacts Settings. I turned on "Automatically sync your iCloud calendars and contacts to Microsoft Outlook". After syncing completes, all iCloud Calendar entries appear in the Outlook (Classic) Calendar, but nothing syncs to the New Outlook calendar. I'm assuming this is an Outlook issue, not an iCloud issue. Any ideas on how to fix this? Thanks
Outlook - Windows Security Pop Up Never Goes Away
I'm running into a head scratcher type of situation. I have a user who has reported that they are getting a Windows Security pop up from outlook that keeps showing up even after clicking Cancel or signing out/in to Outlook. The user didn't put in their credentials. Below are some things I've checked from a security standpoint: Checked the URL in the image using an analysis tool. Nothing malicious came back. Checked the URL "http://cdn.goalline.ca" it redirects to "https://stacksports.goalline.ca/". Nothing malicious there as well. Checked the domain cdn.goalline.ca and nothing malicious. Appears to be registered 20yrs ago and lines up with the stacksports site stating that it was founded in 2002. Checked enterprise AV, MS Defender and nothing malicious comes back. Can anyone help in why this keeps popping up for the user? Also, how do we stop this from re-occurring?PST Export in New Outlook: Progress Update and Current Capabilities
Microsoft has started rolling out PST export support in New Outlook for Windows. While this feature is not yet fully complete, the core mailbox export workflow directly in New Outlook is now functional. Calendar and Contacts remain read-only in the resulting PST file, but the export process is stable enough for early adoption scenarios. This post and the video walk-through cover the current end-to-end experience, including: How to check the mailbox size before initiating the export Exporting the entire mailbox or selecting specific folders Practical guidance for organizing, naming, and managing PST files Full step-by-step guide and video demonstration: https://traccreations4e.com/export-mailbox-to-pst-new-outlook/ If you’ve tested PST export in New Outlook, what has your experience been so far?

No longer able to "Find related messages in this conversation" in Outlook Preview
I used to use the "Find related messages in this conversation" and "Find messages from Sender" several times a day. These options seem to have gone now. Can they be reactivated, or has this feature been removed now? Outlook version: 1.2023.504.300 Client Version: 20230505004.15 Windows Version: Windows 11 Enterprise, Build 22621Cannot preview txt and html email attachments in Outlook 2019 x64
Hello, when I try to preview a txt or html attachment in Outlook 2019 x64 (on Win 10 20H2 x64) email I've got an error: This file cannot be previewed because of an error with the following previewer: Windows TXT previewer (Html Previewer) To open this file in its own program, double-click it. And it is ok with xlsx, docx, pdf and images previews. PreviewHandlers key is in the Registry and seems to be ok. Also I have no previews at all (blank preview without any text, except images and videos) in Explorer Preview pane (for what it's worth).
Seriously, with Full Screen Messages
Stopped using Outlook a year ago over the fact that when you click on a message it only opens about a quarter of the screen. Thought by now it would be fixed. What gives? Don't want to go back to old Outlook on PC as it's slow and hangs in the background and you have to kill it in Task Manager all the time. Any fixes for getting messages to open full screen? Appreciate any ideas and thoughts.
