    Outlook 2013 -- moving to Local files loses mail


    Hi there

    OUTLOOK 2013 -- what a DISASTER

    1) Themes are Hideous (Ok I can live with that but it's not nice).

    2) I don't like the menu bar items - All In caps -- looks hideous - I suppose I can live with that too.

    3) If you are away from your ISP you can't complete setup as it INSISTS that test mail is sent before completing setup and YOU CANNOT UNCHECK THE SEND TEST MAIL box on setup.

    4) SHOWSTOPPER -- if you set it up with IMAP then unlike Office 2010 you don't also get a LOCAL folder created. If you create manually (why not as we aren't always 100% online) OK that SEEMS to work - but then if you MOVE mail from the IMAP folder to the Local folder the mail GETS LOST -- 100% unacceptable.

    Uninstalling Office 2013 at once now -- re-installing Office 2010. Email programs SHOULD BE 100% RELIABLE and able to save folders on LOCAL HDD's if required for working on offline.

    Office 2010 - nice and stable - works 100% reliably, sensible themes and installing outlook can be done OFFLINE too without having to pass the "Test send mail".

    I don't know if Office 365 has these defects - but I'm not keen on anything to do with cloud based solutions.

    I only installed Office 2013 as I wanted to test some of the Touch facilities -- I don't think I'll bother now until the whole package is reliable which it isn't currently. I don't like the whole concept now where everybody thinks you are online 100% of the time -- I'm often NOT online but that's no reason why I shouldn't be able to work on documents or email offline and then "bulk send" later.

    Cheers

  2. Windows 10 Mail APP export to Outlook- any way?

    I have been trying for days to get my emails out of Windows 10 Mail into Outlook 2013 without success. I have several accounts set up in Windows 10 Mail (including POP accounts, Gmail, Hotmail, etc). Most of the emails are local (not longer on a server).
    Is there anyway to move all my emails into Outlook without saving the thousands of emails one at a time in eml format?

    Solved - How to delete an account in Windows 10 mail

    As of August 14, 2015, when following this process word-for-word it fails at step 4, "Sign In Locally" doesn't exist.

    After step 3 there are the following options:

    • Your account,
    • Sign-in options,
    • Work access,
    • Family & others users,
    • Sync your settings.
    Suggestively, within "Your account" there is the option to "Sign in with a local account instead" whereby after entering your registered email-based User password there is the ability to enter in a new User Name, Password and Hint.

    It seems as though to "Sign in with a local account instead" de-links a User's account from Microsoft's servers (while still being able to surf the internet).

    Q1: But does it de-link email accounts connected to the Mail app and Outlook 2013 in Windows 10?

    Personally, I am failing to de-link my personal Outlook from the
    Mail and Calendar app. De-linking from
    Outlook 2013 is easy, within Outlook 2013:

    • go to "File", go to "Info",
    • go to "Account Settings",
    • go to "Account Settings Add or Remove Accounts..".
    Q2: How do I de-link my personal Outlook from the
    Mail and Calendar app?
