I can't add a O365 to Outlook desktop client but I can access from the web This a weird thing, whenever I try to add in Outlook from File > Add Account I get the message "Something went wrong and Outlook couldn't set up your account". From Control Panel > Mail > Email accounts > New > Manual Setup > here I put the email and gets stuck at "Searching for... Settings" and then " An encrypted connection to your email is not available, click Next to attempt using an unencrypted connection", so I do that and get the error "We're sorry we couldn't set up your account automatically. To try setting up the account yourself click Next" which is basically the same. Everything works fine in the browser, any ideas on this?19KViews1like11CommentsAssist me with Shared Mailbox Alias Configuration in Outlook 365
We have a shared mailbox with different email alias configurations for various applications. Each application needs to send emails using its respective alias. Shared Mailbox Name: email address removed for privacy reasons Application 1: From email ID – email address removed for privacy reasons Application 2: From email ID – email address removed for privacy reasons Similarly, I need to define aliases for each application. Could you please assist me with setting this up in Outlook 365? Additionally, could you explain if there are any limitations related to using aliases?249Views0likes4CommentsOutlook 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.76Views0likes3CommentsOpening .msg files from sharepoint natively in Outlook
Hi I am wondering if there is a method of opening .msg files in a similar manner to .xls and .docx, where you can open them natively. The current way sharepoint opens .msg files does not allow access to the attachments in the emails, nor can the message be forwarded unless explicitly downloaded. Classic sharepoint immediately downloads the file, so it does not mitigate the issue experienced here.20KViews0likes10CommentsImport Contact List

The news that the new Outlook client will support custom oversharing dialogs for DLP policies might not seem very interesting, but it provoked me into looking more closely into how to build and deploy custom oversharing dialogs. All it takes is some well-structured JSON and an update to DLP rules, and the classic and Monarch Outlook clients should display custom tenant instructions to anyone who violates DLP rules. https://office365itpros.com/2026/02/12/custom-oversharing-dialog-dlp/57Views0likes0CommentsLocked Out of Global Admin – Lost Authenticator – Case 2602060010000939 – Need Escalation
I am locked out of my Global Administrator account because my phone broke on February 5, 2026 and I no longer have access to Microsoft Authenticator. There is no alternative authentication method configured. Case ID: 2602060010000939. I contacted support on February 6 and the ticket was set as Severity C with an 8-hour response expectation. After several days, I have only received generic replies and no contact from an engineer. This account is critical for my business operations, and I have now been without access for five days. I understand it was my responsibility to maintain backup methods, but I urgently need help from Microsoft to recover access. Please contact me.

Dear all Since Update to Teams 1.6.00.18681, starting a call from Outlook contact card to a phone number is no longer working. Presence is visible, which indicates Teams Presence Plugin, which is handling these requests, is in general working. Making calls to a SIP address of a contact (IM address) is still working, only calls to phone numbers are broken. After clicking to link with phone number under "Work phone" nothing happens. This worked before. User is fully enabled for Teams Telephony. Does someone else mentioned this issue and found a solution to make it work again? Best Regards,Solved17KViews4likes36Comments
