When I use the log-in for Hotmail on my desktop (WinXP), my wife's laptop (Vista) and my work desktop (Apple), my e-mail address appears when I type the first character. When using my new laptop (Win7), I must type the entire address every time. Why?
What do I need to do to use this convenience?
Recently, when I try to send an email, the address of a particular contact ALREADY appears in the address line! How do I get rid of this annoyance?
It appears that Outlook 2011 (up to date with patches) will not receive mail from a server with a self-signed (and therefore not trusted) certificate. When I send mail I am prompted to trust it or not: This works, but when Outlook is quit and relaunched,
the trusted state is forgotten (this might be a problem with Apple Keychain). It's an annoyance, but at least I can send mail.
In receiving, I am not prompted at all, and no mail arrives. No error is written to the Errors window. Also, when sending or receiving, Outlook usually has a progress indicator in the lower right. It's there for sending, but nothing happens at all when I click "send & receive" and there's nothing to send.
When I select Tools > IMAP Folders, the server appears on the left, but no folders appear on the right. (I can view them in Apple Mail.) I have compared my settings to a document I maintain of email server settings, and everything matches. The server does not use nonstandard port numbers.
And finally, I noted that when I view the settings in the Preferences window there is a yellow dot next to the server name. I'm assuming that yellow means a problem is indicated.

With much trepidation I upgraded my entire studio over the weekend (26 installs) to 14.2.2
Using a hybrid upgrade strategy I managed to do this in 4 hours without issue
EXCEPT! My 7 28" iMacs with SSD drives all asked for the Office 2011 serial number
Not a great problem, but just an annoyance and something to keep in mind if you are contemplating updating to 14.2.2 on a Mac with an SSD Drive
Oh, and two macs also now refuse to print to our Canon CLC4040 colour laser printer from Outlook
But that's another story....
