Emails suddenly not rendering on Outlook (Windows)
Hi all, I have a HTML email template, which I have been using and tweaking for months to create our emails. It contains Tables in order to render on Outlook (sigh) and has always done the job thus far. I ran a test last week for our next marketing email, and it was aligning all absolutely fine. However, suddenly, the text has started not aligning with the header and totally ignoring the table, pushing itself all out to the left (see image below). Important to note, that this not only applies to emails I have sent or tested in the last few days, but also to every single email I have sent in the past. It only applies on Outlook, and only on the Outlook software on Desktop, mobile is fine. What is excessively annoying, is that the header lines up, and the text is contained in the same "main table" as the header, I tried quite a few ways to contain the text section back into the main table, but I'm running out of ideas. Also thinking it might have something to do with Outlook updating its rendering software, as I already had to use the code described on this page -https://knak.com/blog/microsoft-introduces-advanced-typography/- to fight Outlook's arbitrary hyphenation (this was successful) but I can't find a fix this time, and I'm really starting to despair. Any ideas? Or anyone with the same issue?
New Outlook doesn't show my name in sent emails, only my email address (IMAP account)
Hello all, Just that problem. When I send emails through the new outlook the recipient sees my email address where it should be my name in the sender field. This is an IMAP account. I've searched for similar answers but they were a bit old and I am not sure if this has been updated yet. I've just switched from the Mail app in Win 11 to the new Outlook as I have been having some problems with emails stuck in the outbox and a lot of repeated drafts in that older app. So far that issue hasn't shown up in the new outlook and everything works fine, except for the thing that my name is not displayed in sent emails. It is not a problem with recipients who already know me, but for new ones it might look odd. Many thanksMicrosoft 365 Business Basic in New Outlook
Apparently, it is not possible to add accounts with a Microsoft 365 Business Basic license to the new Outlook for Windows. Will this option become available in the future, or does it mean that users with different accounts need to find an alternative solution?
View Group membership in outlook app for any user
Earlier version of Outlook Desktop application use to provide Group / DL membership information of any user, within the user property window opened from the Address Book or from any email. But the latest version of Outlook Windows app as well as the Outlook Webapp for Microsoft 365 no longer provide this Group / DL membership info within the User property. Does this require some configuration change at the Admin level (Hide Microsoft 365 Groups from the global address list) ? OR Is there an alternate option available within the new Outlook Windows app to view the Group / DL membership of any user?During forcing me to switch to new Outlook, Outlook lost my emails
The journal won't send the confirm link and outlook(both the app and the webpage version) just refuses to display the email. It took me 5 tries to even get to this step due to outlook does not show those emails in search results when you press enter, and I had to move my mouse quickly to click it in the search bar dropdown. And this is as far as I can get. What a joke.Folder Pane is Missing in New Outlook
After a recent Microsoft update in October 2024, some users, including myself, reported missing the "FAVORITES pane" in the left navigation even when the "Show Favorites" was selected. Microsoft is aware of the issue and is working on fixing it. It is scheduled to roll out in the first week of November. My Current state: The favorites list appears in Outlook Classic and Web versions but not in New Outlook for Windows. Troubleshoot: I tried multiple recommended solutions based on web searches, but none worked. I will share some of them with you so you don't waste time trying them. Reboot my computer Remove and re-add my Outlook account Window + R, then type outlook.exe /resetnavpane Close all Outlook apps. Navigate to c://users/yourprofilename/AppData/Roaming/Microsoft/Outlook Then, make a backup of the XML file and delete it. Relaunch New Outlook. From the search bar, type Outlook (new). Then, uninstall New Outlook and reinstall it. I tried the Repair Tool and theSupport and Recovery Assistant Workaround: Wait patiently for the fix, for I am lost without my favorites.😁 As a workaround, I have moved my top three favorite folders under the Inbox for easy access. I will return to this thread with an update once it is fixed.If you find this information helpful, please mark it as the best response, which will assist others with the same issue. /Teresa #traccreations4e 10/29/2024
Outlook for Windows
Hi - I would appreciate some help if possible. I have been using Microsoft Outlook for many years but have now had to start using Outlook for Windows for my Outlook e-mail account as MS Outlook no longer supports it. Microsoft Outlook gave the option to add and delete fields such as 'From', 'Subject' 'Received' etc by right clicking and choosing 'Customize Current View'. I found this very useful as I added an 'Action' column where I could add reminders and comments for particular e-mails. Is there a way I can do similar in Outlook for Windows as all it displays is 'From', 'Subject' and 'Received'. When I right click in the row it just gives 'Sort Ascending', Sort Descending' or 'Change the View', which then gives just three options of 'Roomy', 'Cosy' or 'Compact'. Grateful if anyone has some advice. Regards Malcolm
