about 500 of my sent emails from my desktop Outlook for Mac 2011 do not upload to the IMAP server.  therefore I am not able to see these sent messages from my desktop on my phone or the webmail.  Any thoughts? 
Dear Microsoft.

If I send an email using Outlook 2011 for Mac, it puts two "From:" fields in the headers of this mail.

If for instance I send a mail to myself, the source contains 

   "From: Mark Timmer <*** Email address is removed for privacy ***>"

and a bit further on 
  
   "From: *** Email address is removed for privacy ***". 

If I use webmail, this is not the case. Now, several mail servers reject my emails, giving a "permanent fatal error" with the error message

   "reason: 550 Messages should have one or no From headers, not 2.".

Could this please be resolved? I doesn't seem like I can change anything to fix this, can I?

Kind regards,
Mark Timmer

Hello.  I bought a Mac Air yesterday primarily for work proposes.  I installed Office 2011 and entered exchange data into Outlook and the Mac did a great job with auto discover and setting up my email and downloading it and my folders.

 

MY work is all PC.

 

My problem: When I modify my email on my MAC, say delete an item or move it to a folder, it does not update my outlook on my work PC (or work webmail). It is almost as if it is only modifying it locally (note: my folders are NOT under my computer).  The inbox on the MAC will update with new email and if I delete email on my work PC it will delete it on my MAC, but not the other way around.

 

Any ideas?  I have tried everything with the settings.  This is a make it or break it for me.  If I cannot get this to work the MAC is going back.

 

Thank You,

J

I'm sure I speak for millions of others when I request that the spam filtering in Hotmail be able to be disabled.  Its doesn't work.  It constantly grabs legit email and sends it to Junk.  And what is incredibly short sighted is that I can't retrieve Junk folder messages by POP.  If I could it wouldn't be such a problem.  But for most of us that have used POP, we realize its superiority to webmail and dread having to use our browser to retrieve email as its so slow and cumbersome. 

So either allow Junk to be retrieved by POP or allow us to disable this useless feature.  

And there should be buttons that say BLOCK SENDER and BLOCK SUBJECT and BLOCK SUBJECT WORD (like Viagra, enhancement, ciallis, etc) so filtering stuff doesn't take 20 clicks with a mouse.  Its not as if you don't have room on the page.  Or right click a message and pick from a bunch of filtering options.  The point is make spam quick to filter.

When I tried to delete e-mail from my Junk e-mail folder in Window Live Mail 2011, I got the message "An unknown error has occurred". I deleted one message via my ISP (Shaw.ca) on-line webmail program but this message was still appearing in my on-line Junk E-mail folder in Windows Live Mail even after I re-started Windows Live Mail.

I checked \AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Live Mail\Shaw (PaulA 758\Junk E-mail folder and it was empty.

I tried repairing Windows Live Mail via Control Panel\Programs and Features\Windows Live Essentials 2011\Repair but the message headings were still in the Windows Live folder.

I tried going off-line to delete the messages but I still got the "An unknown error has occurred" message.

I suspected that the actual messages may have been deleted from the \AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Live Mail\Shaw (PaulA 758\Junk E-mail folder during disk clean-up.


I then:

  • Backed up my e-mail
  • Reinstalled Windows Live Essentials
  • Restored the e-mail backup

The database is now corrupt:

  • The folder tree is not the same as prior to the backup/restore
  • In some of the sub-folders, the To, From and Subject appear to be correct in WLM but clicking on on each of the e-mails in this folder opens the same message

I am using Windows 7. Any assistance would be appreciated.
