I was very excited to get MS Office specifically OUTLOOK for Mac, as i use MS office at my work place and i could use same functionality and ease of use at home, but i was very disappointed when i found out that following key features were missing from Ms OUTLOOK for Mac version and i wonder why Microsoft changed these key features which make MS office /outlook popular alternative to other similar softwares:-   

1. In MS WINDOWS Outlook before sending email we could configure automatic spell check by selecting (ALWAYS CHECK SPELLING BEFORE SENDING) which is missing in MAC version.  

2. After drafting email it is not possible to place in OUTBOX to send only when i SEND/RECEIVE as was possible in MS OFFICE for windows by unselecting (SEND immd when connected) so email was stored in Outbox whereas in MAC OUTLOOK email goes immd which means i cant review email again before sending.  

3. I have several email a/cs and in MS Office for windows i could send email from any of the a/c without it showing my default a/c where as in MAC office when i send email from a different pop a/c it shows in from the name of a/c and as well sent by default a/c name, which is not good as the purpose of sending email from different a/c (personal) a/c is defeated as it shows my work email also as sender.  

4. The signatures of different email a/cs don't appear by default when composing new email for a particular email a/c, which was possible in MS office and was a great feature.  

5. font and size of all incoming email cant be fixed so it is easy to view.  

6. Not possible re call send email.  

I would request Microsoft add above features in MS office or as additional plug in as these are features which MS office so great.  

Also in XLS the key board shortcuts for formating like wrap text and merge cells are missing.
I have recently purchased a Macbook Air with MS Office.  I mostly use Outlook on a desktop PC with Outlook with exchange server 2011.  I also access my emails with iPad and iPhone.

For some reason, on my Macbook Air, some reoccurring appointments appear twice or the appointment has been stretched over a couple of days?  This only seems to be on some and not others?

Has anyone seen this before?
I just bought a new Macbook Pro with MountainLion.  I just bought the MS Office 2011 for Outlook.  I just registered for a new email domain from GoDaddy.

I get nothing but errors including:

* Outlook cannot connect to the server.  Verify that your computer is connected to the network.
* An unknown error has occurred in Outlook.
* Sorry, that domain isn't in my list of allowed recpthosts.

I have tried EVERY combination of POP and IMAP servers that were provided and I am getting nowhere.  I exhausted all support at GoDaddy...I exhausted all support at Mac and now I try to get some help from MS.

This is for work and I need it up and running by tomorrow...ugh.

Any insights will be appreciated. (please note: I have tried every recommendation on the first 30 support blogs on the first 30 support sites on the web for this..and still nothing.

Thanks!!
Since I upgraded to Mountain Lion the sync between Outlook and iCal (and contacts) is dead. Lots of applications are dependent upon this sync.  Most of all, the sync with iPhone and iPad.  

I am a business user.  Outlook is the best Email/Contact/Calendar program out there.  I need to use Outlook and MS Office.  I am not going to stop using them but I would like to see what/if Microsoft is going to do to support this.  This is a huge hole!  There is a post that MS Office is ready for Mountain Lion, that is just plainly not true.

Has anyone else been able to get around this problem?  Any ideas?  Third Party apps to sync?

Thanks.
