how to find a question mark in a string

06. October 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: Hotmail, Outlook.com · Tags: ,

This should be a simple task but I am not able to get outlook.com to find a string that contains a question mark in it.

 

I am using the advanced search and attempting to enter a string such as "today?". I would like not to get all messages with today in them, but just the ones that match the full string including the question mark.

 

The escape characters \?, '?', "?" don't seem to do the trick and I have not been able to find documentation on line the describes how to do this. I have to believe that it is simple.

 

Hopefully this is a simple answer that I am overlooking.

Why is my text automatically changing to strings of code when I talk to any of my designated friends in Messenger?

I can log into messenger ok, but when I access a friend to start a conversation I get a string of code deleting and then replacing my text. The coding does not go away, and just keeps changing all my normal typing. This problem started last night and every time I delete the coding it just automatically re-appears on the screen.

how can I add a reply-to address to my address book?

I would like to automatically add the email address to my contact list for emails I reply to, though not if it is a conversational string.

I can’t see what my friends type in messenger chats

instead a string of alphabets and numbers appear in place, when I try to reply, all that appear is the same string of alphabets and numbers. I've tried deleting messenger and re-installing but its still the same. Help? ):
