How do you automatically BCC someone via the OUTLOOK.com Web interface and via the Outlook.com Android app?

I am using the OUTLOOK.com web interface and the Outlook.com Android app.  I want to BCC the same E-mail address automatically when I send an E-mail from any of my E-mail accounts (I have two configured).   In the windows version of Outlook I would create VBA code to accomplish an automatic BCC copy.  In Exchange I would create a transport rule to automatically BCC.  What does one do with the OUTLOOK.com web interface and Android App?

Can I create a transport rule for Outlook.com or is there a hidden dialog somewhere?

Your help would be greatly appreciated.

I cannot create a folder or upload files from either the web interface or the Skydrive app. I am running Win7 Pro and have not had this issue before on this machine. 

The error I get in the web interface is: skydrive is undergoing some routine maintenance and should be back up shortly. Please try again

A certain E-Mail won’t show on Webinterface

Hello!

 

I have (at least) one certain Mail which won't show up in the web interface of Outlook.com. Surprisingly I'm able to see the very same Mail if I use Outlook 2013, which is connected through EAS. The message is also displayed on my mobile which also syncs with EAS. Has anyone experienced the same issue and has a solution to my problem?

 

Thanks Thomas

How do I select from my contact list when adding friends in the new messenger web interface?

I signed into messenger today and wanted to add friends from my windows live contact list to my friends list.  In the past, I have followed the instructions at this link: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/messenger/get-started?T1=t2, and that has worked perfectly.  With the new web interface, however, all I get is a text entry box where I can input an email address.  How do I add friends from my contact list without typing them in one by one?

 

In general, I am using messenger to contact everyone in my work organization.  It is a long and painful process to add all 300 plus people to my friends list since I am limited to 20 per day.  Adding them to my email contacts was a simple matter of importing a .csv file, but there seems to be no easy way to make them all messenger contacts.  Messenger seems very ill suited for this purpose, but unfortunately I do not have any say over which tool we use in my organization.

 

I am using version 2011 (build 15.4.3555.308).  Let me know if you need any other info to troubleshoot.
