Windows 10: Trying to change email-flagged as work or school email, but it's not

AliciaODonnell · Dec 17, 2020

I am trying to change my Microsoft log in info from an old address to a new one. When I enter the email address, I get an error message that I cannot use a work or school email. This is neither, its Tutanota. Does anyone know how I can work around this? I'm on with MS help, but it's been an extremely long wait and no info on how much longer. Thanks!

Microsoft To-Do app 1.52 adds flagged email list on Windows 10 and web

Flag an email in your work or school account and, in the blink of an eye, you'll find it in your Flagged Email list on To-Do! Enable it today with our latest Windows or web updates (1.52).

Microsoft To-Do is always here to help you plan your day, but sometimes an inbox full of urgent emails can get in the way of careful planning. Don’t worry, with our latest update, you won't have to juggle your emails and your task list—you can now add your flagged emails to To-Do (for work and school accounts), giving you one unified view of what you need to accomplish today.

Set up your day
Like to triage your email when you first arrive at the office? Now, as you get to the emails that need a reply or need to be worked on you can flag them and carry on, knowing that they’ll be waiting for you when you open To-Do. If it's an email you need to deal with urgently then you can flag it with a high priority, and when you open To-Do you'll see that it's been starred as important.

Once you have worked through all your emails you can open To-Do and start planning your day—you’ll find all your flagged emails in the Flagged Email list. Want to work on it today? Right-click on the task and add it to “My Day”—giving you a more coherent view of what your day will look like and what you can accomplish. And if you don’t have the bandwidth for it today, then add a due date or a reminder to deal with it later.

Break your tasks into steps

Get to work on your email
It’s time to get to work ticking off that list. Click on the flagged email task and you’ll find a preview of the email and a button to take you to the Outlook website, or your mobile app, where you can see the full email and reply to it. Not ready to reply to it just yet? Jot down some ideas in the notes section or break down your task into Steps.

If you are halfway through writing an email and get pulled away to a meeting, flag the draft email and it will also show up in To-Do, reminding you that it still needs to get ticked off when you get back to your desk.

Get started
Let’s get you started, to enable flagged email you need to sign in to To-Do on web or Windows with the same work or school account that you use for email. An alert will pop up asking if you want to show the Flagged Email list. And, just like that, your flagged email will start pulling through to To-Do.

Now, we don’t want to overwhelm you with a lot of out-of-date email, so we will only import up to 10 flagged email from the last two weeks. Want to see more than that? You can re-flag any that you want to see in To-Do and they will also turn up in the Flagged Email smart list.

You can’t enable flagged emails on Android or iOS now but, once it is enabled on Windows or web, you will be able to see the Flagged Email list—meaning you can take your list on the go.

We want to hear from you
As always, we’d like to hear from you—tell us what you think of our latest feature in the comments below, on Twitter or on Facebook. We are working on bringing this to personal accounts soon, so stay tuned!

To manage your flagged email directly in Microsoft To-Do, just sign in to the web or Windows app using the same work or school account that you use with Office 365.

To enable the Flagged Email list select the option to Show List.

Alternatively, you can also turn the list on in Settings.

After the Flagged Email list has been enabled, it will be populated with up to 10 flagged emails from the last 2 weeks. All emails flagged from that point forward will also be converted into fully editable tasks in To-Do, which can be renamed, assigned due dates and reminders, added to My Day and marked as Important. Once enabled, the Flagged Email list will also be accessible in To-Do on iOS and Android.

The task will also include a preview of the email's text. To open the original email select the option to Open in Outlook from the detail view.

Please know that the Flagged Email list is currently only available for work or school accounts. At the moment, personal Microsoft accounts are not supported, though we will support more account types in the future.

Unauthorized Emails from my account?

Embarrassingly, everyone on my email list received spam originating from my account, which is Yahoo based. A scan with MSE found two trojans, a Java/Rowindal.A and a Downloader:Java/OpenStream.W.

Are these the source of my unwanted email traffic? Would someone opening this email be infected with the same problems? Could there be more dangerous underlying threats.

Hell, I have quite a few high dollar clients in my list. I always treat people's addresses like they were unlisted numbers, and don't send frivolous "Hey how are ya" junk. This is mortifying.*Eek!

It is more than likely that your email account was hacked, either by a virus sniffing your password, or just simply hacked.

Either way, change your password on your email account. Unfortunately the damage by already be done. They already have your contact list and your email address associated with that contact list. There is nothing stopping them from sending out emails using their own SMTP servers to everyone on your contact list and claiming the emails are from your email address. They don't actually have to have access to your yahoo account or even any yahoo server to send emails to people that come from your address.
