Eight Mailboxes in Outlook: What’s Really Causing the Slowdown
Eight Mailboxes in Outlook: What’s Really Causing the Slowdown
Believe it or not, many of my clients have eight or more email accounts in Outlook. When I take on these clients, I know they are super users of Outlook. Meaning, they usually know a lot about their accounts and profile set up. One thing they usually don’t know though is how the email accounts work with Outlook in the back end and what can cause their emails to have some problems with connecting to accounts through Outlook. That’s where I come in.
Last week I had a client call in with the problem of everything being super slow. When clients book time, I do onboarding and cover everything in their system and then do a “diagnosis” of what some root causes could be. The list can be very long of things I look for:
- Hard drive out of space
- OST file over the max size
- VPN has been causing many issues lately
- Older/slower computers
- Antivirus
- Firewalls
- Traveling in different internet hot spots
- Old modems/routers
- Corrupted email/calendar event, large attachment stuck
So, as you can see, there are many possible issues. I go through them all and then help the client get Outlook back up and running. For this client, I created a new profile with just 2 accounts for him to test and then we can figure out what is causing the issue. Problem not resolved yet. I will update this post when I have a final resolution.

How to change the order of accounts in New Outlook
How to change the order of accounts in New Outlook
Hi folks! When I first started doing articles about New Outlook, there were so many things we could not change and the order of accounts was one of them.
Now you can go to the settings in New Outlook, then hit “Accounts” and then click on the “Manage” button. Once you click on that, you can see the option to “Set as primary account” and this will put your favorite on the top. If the order still doesn’t sit right, then remove all the accounts and add back in order you prefer.
Just little tip for you all! If you need help with New Outlook, set up or configuring from Outlook Classic, use the form below.
Microsoft Error: Your account has been locked Outlook.com
Your account has been locked Outlook.com
I have seen this error before with new Outlook.com accounts, it’s very odd but it kicks in sometimes after you just set up a new Outlook.com account and then set up in Outlook Classic. Usually it happens the same day or next day.
If you’re not seeing email delivering or sending out, then log in on www.outlook.com and then you will see the security prompts. It should unlock in about 20 min, restart your Outlook program and test. If not working yet, give it more time.
