I'm using Outlook 2011 (version 14.2.5, (121010)), and over the last 1-2 weeks, with no account or settings changes, my deleted messages are no longer being moved to the Deleted folder on the IMAP server that I have instructed it to move deleted messages to.  It is working the same way on two different computers, each running the same version of Outlook.  

Has something changed with a recent update?  It used to work fine....

Thanks in advance...
There seems to be a fault with the way Outlook handles moving files. This has been around for about a week now. when I try to move a file it leaves a copy in the Inbox on the server. This wasn't the case and I think it might be as a result of an upgrade. My iPad and iPhoe do not have the same problem
In my Outlook 2011 I am trying to export emails so they are readable by other programs, either as mbox or eml files. I have tried multiple methods to do this including....

1) Drag the folder in Outlook 2011 to my desktop to create an MBOX file.
2) Save the email itself as an eml file by dragging it to finder
3) Sending the emails to my IMAP server by creating a folder and dragging them, then synchronizing with the server
4) Sending the email as attachment

No matter what I do, if i open up the email in Apple Mail, Thunderbird, or even open it back up in Outlook 2011, I see no subject and no sender and often the emails are corrupted.

When viewing them in Thunderbird or Apple Mail I get the error message displayed "This message is in MIME format. Since your mail reader does not understand this format, some or all of this message may not be legible."

These emails display just fine in Outlook 2011 (14.2.4), they range from recent emails to some over a decade old.  Because of this though I would never be able to move to Outlook for Windows, or any other email program, I also can't seem to forward emails as attachments from my archive on my computer.

Has anyone ever run in to this problem? I am hesitant to purchase a program like Emailchemy until I know the root cause of the issue and whether or not a program like that would fix the issue.

Thanks,

I want to setup my live.com email address on Outlook 2011 so that it syncs my read messages and folders with Outlook, but when I try to set it up through an Exchange server or IMAP, it doesn't work.  It forces to POP3, which is not going to work.  Is there a "Hotmail Outlook Connector" for Mac?  Or is that also a PC-only capability like OneNote?  If there are IMAP server settings that I could use with Outlook, please indicate them here.  Thanks!
Hi all -

I am in the process of moving from an in-house IMAP server to a hosted Exchange server for my small business e-mail.

We have a lot of email messages, especially in shared folders that are shared among our five users.

Previously I was using Apple Mail, so in order to transfer the mail to the Exchange server, I added the exchange account and manually transferred mail to my Exchange inbox.

As Apple Mail doesn't support Public Folders in exchange, I then set up my new Exchange account in Mac Outlook and moved the emails from my inbox to my Public Folder (that all 5 of us will be sharing).

The problem is, the Public Folder is giving me the above error code and has only synchronized a portion of the emails in that folder.  So when I go to Outlook Web Mail, it is only showing maybe 50% of the emails even though my Outlook client has them all.

My hosting provider is unable to advise why and they said there is no limitation on mailbox size on their end.  

They have suggested that I try to migrate my emails using an IBM but I don't have any IBMs, and I"m afraid this issue may come again when I try to move emails to the Public Folder in the future.

It's about 4 GB of mail.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

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.

I accidently deleted the trash folder from one of the accounts in my Live Mail (not the contents, the whole folder).  Now my Live Mail will not work at all.  I deleted the account and replaced it without effect.  The Error Messsage is:

Unable to send or receive messages for the Charter (ew22155)(1) account.  Header download for the 'Trash' folder did not complete.  Could not select 'Trash' on the IMAP server.  Try updating the folder list and then try again.  [I am unable to find out how to 'update the folder list;' adding a folder does not work].

Server Response:  The specified mailbox does not exist. [I can access it online.]

Server:  'IMAP.charter.net'

Windows Live Mail Error ID:  0x800CCCD2

Protocol:  IMAP

Port 143

 

Even as I keyed this message, I got a beep indicating incoming mail.  I checked and can now access my email (still no trash folder).  However, when I close and reopened Live Mail, I got the same message again  Tried sending a test mail from one account to the other; Windows Live Mail would not let it be sent.
