  1. Inconsistent results passing Starred items from Gmail to Flagged in Outlook


    The owner of my company has an assistant, part of whose job it is to go through all his emails and mark the ones he needs to review for followup. Her environment is Google Workspace, which we subscribe to for the back-end on our mail system. Some users prefer to stay in the Google environment; others prefer to use Outlook and other desktop tools. Those who use Outlook as their mail platform are connected to Google Workspace via IMAP. The system had been working for several years in a way that the emails that the assistant starred in Gmail would show up as flagged in Outlook, and they had creat

    GUIDE:How to transfer contacts from Microsoft Outlook to Gmail

    I'm sitting here in the office, its the end of the year in the school system, and several employees transferring to alternative counties. With this it brings loads of transferring contacts to take with them from their company phone. Well, this one in particular sparked a guide idea. So here it is, How to transfer Outlook contacts to your Gmail account.


    Step 1: Sign in to your outlook account.
    step 2 In the top left hand corner click File > Import/Export > Export to file > Browse to desired place to save your file > export. Be sure you export the file as .csv (comma separated values)
    Step 3 Log into your Gmail account
    Step 4 Select 'Contacts' In the subsection you will see a 'Import' button on the right-hand side. Click it.
    Step 5 Browse to the location where you saved it > Open it > Click Import.



    I would have provided pictures, but I use neither Outlook or Gmail. Hope someone somewhere gets some use from this. *Toast :toast:

    Mail and Calendar app: flag not syncing with Gmail

    Everything else is syncing perfectly but flags stay local. I have several Win10 devices and Android syncing on my Gmail accounts.

    The flags are not converted into a star in Gmail and vice and versa: starred emails in Gmail don't show as flagged in Mail and Calendar.

    Other clients are doing this perfectly: eM client, mailbird, touch mail etc...

    The only workaround is to move the email into the Starred IMAP folder in Mail and , too slow..

    Is this a bug? I really like Mail and Calendar UI, which can adapt from a tablet format to a full desktop format. But without flag syncing with Gmail it can't be productively used.

    Bug? Feature? Please help!

    Add gmail account to outlook without text message verification?

    A screenshot might help us identify whether it is MS or gmail that is responsible for this (my guess is gmail). The MS instructions you linked to say that no verification should be required if 2FA (in gmail) is off.
    I suggest you turn on 2FA in gmail, and try again.
