Original Title: "2 questions about Outlook for Mac, version 14.2.4."

Hi, can anyone tell me what is the maximum number of addressees I can place in an email, as Cci?
Also, when I want to sent an email to my distribution list (I put up to 20 addressees by email), nothing can be sent if there it, at list, one email address that is not correct: how can I remedy to that? In the Outlook version used on a PC, that was never an issue (emails were all sent and, some, returned with an error message).
I use the Outlook for Mac version 14.2.4.
Thank you for your support, highly appreciated.

Is there a way to sort mail folders other than alphabetically?

I can't seem to drag and drop folders in a specific order, they only sort alphabetically.  Is there a way to arrange them in another order?  Seems like this would be a pretty basic feature.

keep getting Mail could not be sent error code -8796

13. November 2012 · Write a comment · Categories: Outlook for Mac · Tags: , , , , , , , ,
I have outlook 2011 for mac. I also have mountain lion. My email works fine, but this error message keep popping up even though I can send mail without a problem.

I've tried changing my smtp settings according to the help I've found here, but I cannot find this particular error code: -8796.

I also have lion on my laptop, with the exact same account set up and am not having any issues on my laptop, just my tower.

What can I do to stop the unknown error alert that keeps popping up every time mail is checked?

Thank you.

Identity rebuild confusion-Outlook for Mac 2011-urgent

13. November 2012 · Write a comment · Categories: Outlook for Mac · Tags: , , , , , , ,
1) Problem: I confess to having blithely moved my "Microsoft User Data" files out of Documents to a place more friendly to the average uninformed user (the Applications folder as, at the time, it seemed like "program stuff", not "my stuff".  I lament my hastiness, repent, and plead your help).
  • Looks like my Outlook data files are intact but the rebuilds, the common ways, are not working (Including the move of the database file to the desktop before trying the rebuild, per Diane of Oregon).  Either way I do it, rebuild runs very fast (a few seconds, on a '08 MacBook Pro), and then tells me that rebuild was successful.  But when I reopen Outlook, it's still the generic "fresh start" identity, not Main or mine.
  • I am a simple non-Exchange/non-IMAP, POP3 email, "isolated user".  I'm running "Office:Mac 2011 Academic".
3)  Question: Before I try this riskier way: http://www.officeformachelp.com/outlook/troubleshoot/#duplicate, which is a little unclear as it is, and given my basically simple-cause scenario, what else could I try first?

Name Appears Differently from Email to Email

I'm trying to solve the below dilemma. My full name, "Patrick Russo", is entered correctly under Tools>Accounts, but it seems like gmail (communicating via pop) is affecting the way my name appears in each email. Any thoughts?


eMail configuration seems to be damaged when using send eMail as attachment from Excel, PowerPoint, Word

12. November 2012 · Write a comment · Categories: Outlook for Mac · Tags: , , , , , , ,
I am getting the message "...Please check you Mail Configuration...". Everything worked fine before, even sending eMail via Word, Excel, Powerpoint. Even after a complete delete of Office 2011 and a new installation it is not functioning any longer.  Steps to the error:

Menu: File ==> Share ==> eMail (as attachment)  (I had to translate it by myself because I am using German language - might be different at original english version)

Outlook start / pops up but nothing happens. Going back to the calling app (Excel, PPT, ...) shows Popup " Please check that your eMail program is correctly configured ....". 

I have checked that Outlook is the default eMail Program and I run the Database Utility Tool to re-build my Main Identity - still getting this error popup.
