Outlook Web sends emails in my organization using the ISO-8859-1 character set. However, Copilot claims: "Outlook Web (Outlook on the Web, OWA) does not generate your messages in ISO-8859-1. It always uses UTF-8." My Outlook Web only switches to the UTF-8 character set if the email contains Unicode characters that cannot be displayed in ISO-8859-1. How can I enforce UTF-8 globally for my organization?34Views0likes1CommentI can't add an O365 email to Outlook desktop client but I can access it from the web
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?253Views0likes4CommentsImport 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.

Hello, my work uses the Dynamic 365 App for Outlook to track meetings as appointments in Dynamics 365, but it has failed several times for several users (on both Mac and Windows, in Old and New Outlook and on web browsers); some meetings will fail to track immediately while in some cases, meetings that were successfully tracked will stopped working and are no longer tracked in Dynamics. In the spoiler below is a sanitized version of the diagnostic log for meetings that used to be tracked that stopped working: In the log, we have the following error message: "lastsyncerror": "ExchangeSyncGeneralCrmItemSyncError;Microsoft.Crm.Asynchronous.EmailConnector.ErrorSource.Crm:130;T:188\r\nActivityId: [Removed]\r\n>Exception : Microsoft.Crm.Asynchronous.EmailConnector.ExchangeSyncException: Failed to sync item to CRM server : System.ServiceModel.FaultException`1[Microsoft.Xrm.Sdk.OrganizationServiceFault]: There is no active transaction. This error is usually caused by custom plug-ins that ignore errors from service calls and continue processing. at System.Runtime.Remoting.Proxies.RealProxy.HandleReturnMessage(IMessage reqMsg, IMessage retMsg) +0x27 at System.Runtime.Remoting.Proxies.RealProxy.PrivateInvoke(MessageData& msgData, Int32 type) +0x1ba at Microsoft.Xrm.Sdk.IOrganizationService.Execute(OrganizationRequest request) at Microsoft.Xrm.Sdk.WebServiceClient.WebProxyClient`1.ExecuteAction[TResult](Func`1 action) +0x15 at CrmSDKLib.OrganizationServiceWrapper.<>c__DisplayClass10_0.<Execute>b__0() in C:\\__w\\1\\s\\src\\lib\\CrmSDK\\OrganizationServiceWrapper.cs:line 13..." In Outlook, when I look at these meetings and check the app it gives the message: Recurring appointment occurrence cannot be tracked However, we have other series of recurring meetings that have been successfully tracked that does not run into the issue. Anyone has encountered this or similar issue? How do we resolve this so going forward the app can track all meetings without issue? Please let me know, thank you!108Views0likes2CommentsOutlook Search isue
