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!Solved52Views1like3CommentsChanging email providers, Can I just change server settings
We own 2 domains, mkchambers.net and mkchambers.com. Mkchambers.net is hosted at company A mkchambers.com is hosted at company B. Our email is hosted at company A, so our email addresses are ***@mkchambers.net. The web base email program company A uses allows to use alias email addresses, so we aliased everyone’s email address to ***@mkchambers.com. When we setup everyone’s email in Outlook 2019 we used ***@mkchambers.com for their email address. We are planning to switch our email host to company B so our email addresses won’t change they will still be ***@mkchambers.com. The question I have is will we need to export everyone’s email, setup a new email account in Outlook 2019 and then import the emails, or since the email addresses will be the same can we just change the server setting in Outlook to company B’s settings.36Views0likes4CommentsHow to Remove Generic 'Office' Location in Microsoft Places for Accurate Building Selection?
After adding custom buildings in Microsoft Places for users to choose from as their hybrid work location in Outlook, is there a way to hide or remove the generic "Office" location? Currently, users tend to select "Office" (Kontor in Swedish) instead of the specific building, which causes confusion.203Views0likes1CommentRSS Feed Folder Missing In Shared Mailbox
Hello, I want to subscribe to few RSS feed in Outlook 365, recently I was able to add RSS feeds in my personal mailbox RSS feed folder but now I want to make sure my whole team should get alerts when there is new update released by product hence instead of asking everyone to configure RSS feed personally I thought of creating shared mailbox where all have access and thought of adding RSS feeds their for our product websites. But unfortunately I dint find RSS feeds folder under shared mailbox, also I tried to change RSS feed folder delivery location to shared mailbox data file but it doesnt allow (due to .ost extension). Does anyone know how can I add RSS feed in shared mailbox if its really supported ? if its not supported then any official blog that has the statement declared by Microsoft ? Or is there better option to configure RSS feed in outlook so that my entire team will track alerts.

Outlook for Windows is being rebranded to "Outlook Classic," which indicates that New Outlook is here to stay. Starting in late July 2024, Outlook for Windows will be rebranded as "Outlook Classic" to differentiate it from the New Outlook email client. The new name will apply to version 2407 and above. The support documentation will reflect this change, with the "New Outlook" tab taking precedence over the "Outlook Classic" tab. These updates will not impact the app's status or support, and no action is needed from administrators. The rollout will begin in late July 2024 and be completed across different channels by January 2025.

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).Solved57Views0likes6Comments
