Category: New OutlookIn New Outlook, to make a rule:
If you need my help, with finding old rules in Classic Outlook, please reach out using the contact form below.
If you are new to “New Outlook” and just switched from Classic to New, then your rules are possibly in the classic Outlook profile and not stored on a server. The New Outlook only works with the email server of your email hosting company.
Example: If you have a Microsoft Business Exchange server or Microsoft Outlook/Hotmail, MSN email then your rules should be on the server.
Example of emails that have local rules setup: POP/PST and IMAP. Some IMAP email rules will work if you have them setup on the email server but most folks use local rules in Outlook.
If you have access to the old rules in classic Outlook, then you can export them and import them into a new server only in classic Outlook. And the bad news, it most likely won’t work well. I’m going to recommend you make the rules on the server from now. Rules do work in the New Outlook but it depends on your email host. You might want to try first.
In New Outlook, to make a rule:
If it does, then you are good to go! If not, then your email host might not allow rules from New Outlook. Try making a rule/filter on the webmail side and then it might work in New Outlook

Hi folks, this is the form I’m asking all my clients to fill out before the schedule a 10 min consult or their onboarding appt. This form has a lot of details I need to know, if you don’t feel comfortable adding any information to the form no worries, please just let me know during the time we have together. I ask for this information so I know what you let you know during our appointment. New Outlook has a lot of configuration changes from Classic Outlook and I’d rather know up front what you have/need so I can set it up correctly or know what issues I will have during your migration.
Please fill out this form with as much information as you can. The rest I can get during the onboarding.
Want even more information or use other social media/communities?

Just saw it yesterday folks! Please read this and if you need my help migrating data from a PST to a server so you can use the data more, please use the form below and get in contact.
You can add your local PST files there, but keep in mind, all you can do is read the email. You cannot move, copy, reply from that PST. It’s view only.
This PST feature might not last forever and it’s not that useful for Outlook super users. I have hopes that this might change but be prepared for a data migration to a server.

This error might launch when you toggle from New Outlook back to Classic Outlook (desktop application). I got this error when I was doing my testing from New Outlook to Classic Outlook. I clicked on the OK button and my Classic Outlook launched fine. If you click on OK and your past Outlook doesn’t launch, I can help you get back to it. Please use the form below to contact me. Due to my not knowing what configuration you had setup, I cannot give free advice on this error.
