Outlook (2010) - Vertical padding in message list

In my message list, is there a way to increase the line height (and/or increase the padding in the y-direction) so that each item has more space between it and its neighbors? I'm not looking
to increase the font size--that does not accomplish my goal.
Thanks in advance.
edit: I'm looking to mimic the "Display Density" setting in GMail, which you can set to Comfortable, Cozy, or Compact.

Hi,
Thanks for your post. To my knowledge, this is currently not a feature in Outlook client, we are not able to adjust this in Outlook.
I would suggest you to submit the feature request to our product team via Microsoft Support (no charges will apply but you might need to supply credit card information to get it registered):

Everytime I send an email in Outlook 2010, I get a message asking if I want to open Firefox Document E9B557DD-DAE3-4088-988A-9123DAC2AAC7.html. There are brackets around the number. It's extremely annoying.

It's extremely annoying. I had an issue with the latest version of WinZip, which I mistakenly downloaded and installed--it automatically zipped my files, which is not what I want it to do. I removed WinZip and reinstalled the older version, and then I started getting these messages. It also seems to be interfering with Outlook 2010 help--I get another message about downloading a Firefox document and it won't load.

Help please? Outlook 2011 stuck on 'updating message list' after deleting 1000's of emails from my 'deleted items' folder

Hello.
I've been searching online for an answer and can't find one - hopefully someone can help...
I recently updated to Yosemite and decided on a general clear-out, so went through 1000's of documents, photos, emails, etc. I ended up deleting the all of the emails in my 'deleted items' folder. Since then, when I go into Outlook and hit the 'send/receive' tab it logs on as normal, but then gets stuck on 'updating message list' - it shows me that there are emails and how many, but will not download them.
Does anyone have any experience of this?
Many thanks!

As Outlook, part of MS Office, is not an Apple product, I strongly recommend asking in the Microsoft Office:Mac forums here:
Office for Mac
Everyone there is a Mac user AND an Office user, something you can't say about Apple's forums. You will get the fastest help there and I think you will find the contributors more than helpful.

Exchange 2010 / outlook 2010 | can't drag messages to folders

with the left mousebutton can't drag messages to folders
if i rightclick on a message can i move a message to a folder
Why can't I drag a message to a folder?

Hi,
Have you tried this in Outlook safe mode? To start Outlook in safe mode, press Windows key + R to open the Run command, type
outlook /safe and press Enter.
In addition, we may try to recreate the .ost file to check if this issue is related to Data File corruption. To do this, just find the .ost file and rename it to .old, then restart Outlook.
I also heard that some user were able to resolve this issue by hitting the
Esc key from keyboard. See a similar issue discussed here:

Outlook 2010 Font Size In Messages

We have two machines, both with new installs of Outlook. In my machine the font size that is active for a New message is OK. On my wife's machine the font size is VERY SMALL! Also, when I Reply to a message for font size I see is OK, but when she replies
it becomes very small.
In addition, on her machime she has a signature that is set at Calibri 11. But when she selects New Message, the displayed signature is very small. I have spent hours comparing the settinge of the two machines (Windows 7 with all updates) and I can see no
differences in the settinge in anyplace I search.
What could be the reason? What am I doing wrong.
HELP!!

Hi,
Hold CTRL Key and scroll the cursor
should enlarge the font size include signature.
Try to enlarge the font size then re-set the signature to check the issue.

Have you subscribed any RSS Feeds before? Please go to File > Info > Account settings > "RSS Feeds" Tab and check if all the feeds are healthy (connection successful?). Remove them to check

Question about Outlook 2010 and Contact list

Good afternoon all, OK so I have been trying to research this problem but I don't know if it can be done. In Outlook 2010 we created a contact list that we use to fax and email referring physicians. In Outlook when you click on a contact in that list and add it to the "To" line it come up with the persons name of the contact I picked, but what if I wanted to fax that contact and needing just the fax number that in that contact card to only come up. Is there a setting that allows me to change what info I want to be seenin the"TO" line of the email?To give a bit more info: Our company just purchased the GFI FaxMaker software that allows us to fax from our PC.We purchased it because it integrated with MS Outlook. What wasn't told to us wasthat we had to add "@faxmaker.com"at the end of the fax number. So hence my problem with outlook....

Hi,
Unlike earlier versions of Outlook that store the auto-complete list in a file on your computer, Outlook 2010 stores the auto-complete list as a hidden message in your primary message store:

'Updating message list' from hotmail FROZEN - Please help!

My mom just purchased a new mac - I've purchased Outlook for her so she can easily download her hotmail messages. I've been cruising along, downloading the 17,511 messages she has on the server (I know!!) and it stopped halfway through. In the bottom righthand
corner of the Outlook mailbox it says' Updating message list' and then has a bar which usually is filling up as it pulls messages off the server - but now nothing is happening and it seems stuck on 0/7892 (that's the text on the right of the bar). Help! Why
is it stuck? I've done the whole process twice and it seems to get stuck here. I even checked online to see if I could delete some troubled file, but can't seem to go back that far on the server (even though it lists all 17K messages (as a number next to the
Inbox tab - showing it has record of them, but where are they??) Thank you so much for any help you can give me!!!

Hi Michi,
First, check your internet connection because the low server connectivity can make such a frozen disturbance in Outlook. Apart from it there can lots of reasons behind this disturbance:
Antivirus Programs: In most of the cases, these antivirus scanning programs pretend emails as malwares and does not allow Outlook to receive it.
Large Attachments: If someone sending large attachments as email then its also make Outlook froze up. So to overcome from this, stop downloading large emails.
Corruption in Outlook Data File: Corrupt Outlook data file is one of popular reason behind the disturbance like this. Use scanpst.exe to fix the corruption issue of Outlook database and
then again try to download emails. Hopefully it will work!!!
Problems in Outlook are not just limited to the above given reasons, there is list of errors and causes in Outlook data file and their resolution.

Outlook 2010: "Cannot open your default e-mail folders..."

When I open Outlook 2010 I receive the message: "Cannot open your default email folders. There is not enough memory to perform the operation.", after which the program closes. This is on a network running SBS 2003, with about 25 users, and I
am the only with this problem. System resources on the exchange server are fine, so I can only imagine a disk usage quota has been exceeded somewhere. Storage limits for my account looked fine. I've tried restarting exchange services, restarting
the server itself, restarting my desktop, etc etc, to no avail.
This specific problem just started yesterday, but I've been having memory issues for months now. Usually, the Send and Receive dialogue will tell me that there are not enough resources on the server, but mail comes and goes just fine. It's never
simply refused to let me open outlook before, like it is now.
I also tried logging in through another computer and using Outlook 2003, which actually let me open the program, but did not sync mail properly.
Also, we use cached exchange mode, so I tried creating a new ost file, but no dice.
Anyone know what the deal might be?

Hi,
I agree with Don’s guess of damaged PST file or MAPI profile. Analyzed your description(sync mail improperly on another computer and using cache mode), this problem might occur when your Outlook messaging profile includes a Microsoft Exchange account
that is configured to Use Cached Exchange Mode, and you have lots of cached public folders. Usually, this problem occurs when you exceed approximately 1,000 public folders, or a gigabyte of space is taken.
To prevent this problem, keep the number of cached public folders to fewer than 1,000. Or, reduce the number of folders until the error or errors stop occurring. If you are experiencing this problem, delete some public folder favorites by using the Outlook
client. In some cases, if you have too many favorites, you may be unable to delete the folders because the error occurs when you click the public folder favorites folder.
To delete the public folder favorites, follow these steps:
1.Download MFCMAPI from http://mfcmapi.codeplex.com.
2.Run MFCMAPI.exe.
3.On the Session menu, click Logon and Display Store Table.
4.If you are prompted for a profile, select your profile name, and then click OK.
5.In the top pane, locate the line that corresponds to your mailbox, and double-click it.
6.In the navigation pane (left-side pane), expand Root - Mailbox, and select the Shortcuts folder.
7.In the results pane (right-side pane), locate the PR_FOLDER_CHILD_COUNT properties. The value contains the number of public folder favorites.
8.In the navigation pane, right-click the Shortcuts folder, and then select Empty Items and Subfolders from Folder.
9.Keep the default options, and then click OK.
Good Luck.

Outlook 2010 IMAP connection problem and not work with TLS enabled

Dear all,
Need your help. 5 users of my customer Outlook 2010 suddenly popped error message "Your IMAP server closed the connection". We checked that there is no problem in IMAP connection in Exchange 2007 server (SP3) (we tested with setup new
account in another Outlook and able to connect, send and receive email).
We are able to workaround the problem of that 5 users by disabling TLS in account setting for SMTP to Exchange. The users can then connect and able to send and receive. (however, in our testing above, there is no problem with TLS).
Could you help to enlighten me what may be the cause of this situation?
Best Regards,
Rayson Wong

Hi,
Please click File > Account Settings > Account Settings > Select the IMAP account and click
Change > More Settings button > Advanced tab, and then adjust the
Server Timeouts slider bar to a longer time to check the result.
Also make sure the SMTP server port number is set correctly.
Please let me know the result.

Outlook 2010 / EWS

I've got a process that needs to pick up mail messages from a certain account, and we have messages from one vendor that seem to have trouble--something in their message formatting. Our workaround has been to open Outlook 2010, and move the message(s) from
the inbox to Sent Items, and back again. The external process then seems to be able to pick up the message(s). I've got a filter in place that moves the messages to the Sent items folder, and have a Powershell script leveraging EWS to move them back to the
inbox. Even though the messages are getting moved correctly, our external process can't seem to get at the messages. Would there be any significant differences between how the outlook client and EWS are acting on these messages? Really confused by this one,
the logs don't shed any light...
TIA

Hello,
Accroding to your description, I understand that you manually do it, the external process seems to be able to pick up the message, but if you use Powershell script leveraging EWS to do it automatically, the external process not work.
If so, I consider the issue may related to EWS. Please follow the Ed's suggestion.

Outlook 2010 cannot save to archive folders listed. Message says that message was already moved or that user doesn't have permission.

Outlook 2010 cannot save to archive folders listed. Message says that message was already moved or that user doesn't have permission.

Hi,
Does this issue occur when you manually archive items in Outlook, do you drag them into the archive folder?
The first thing I wonder is if the .pst file has been corrupted, please run Scanpst.exe to repair the archive .pst file:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/272227/en-us
Please logon your Webmail(owa), check if the emails are available. If the emails have been moved and Outlook Client hasn't synced yet, this issue may occur as well.
We can also create a new .pst file to archive the file, check if the issue persists.
For more information, we can refer to Archive items manually:
http://office.microsoft.com/en-in/outlook-help/archive-items-manually-HA010355564.aspx
When you browse to the archive file in step 5, type in a new .pst file name.
If my understanding is not accurate, please detail your scenario and provide the exact error message.

Outlook 2010 messages that have not been deleted are available in Recover deleted Items list

Hello,
Outlook 2010\Exchange 2010 SP1-clustred
I have looked at several mail accounts through Outlook 2010 client, they are not using the cached mode, they have not emptied the trash.
When I look in Recover deleted items I am seeing messages, mostly sent messages that are available for recovery, the problem is that these messages have not been deleted, they are
still in the sent folder.
I have restored one to see what will happen, it does restore to the deleted items folder.
It seems to random messages some sent to groups some sent to a single individual
Some Outlook 2010 clients I have checked do not show this problem, but several do including myself, I would have assumed that the Outlook 2010 client user had somehow deleted
it and restored it causing this problem if I did not see this on my own account.
Is this normal behavior? Perhaps some from replication or temp draft's
Any help or information would be appreciated.
Thanks

Since the post is over two year old, I'm not sure manotelli is still following it, but I think he is talking about something else:
1. He starts a message and does not complete it (or send it).
2. The message is saved as a draft pending completion.
3. Once he completes the message and sends it, there is an autosaved version that is deleted.
I'm not sure what relationship exists between the "draft" which (I would think) is what is ultimately sent when the message is completed and whatever is sent to the recycle bin.
It has nothing to do with webmail (OWA) or any form of remote access.
Please mark as helpful if you find my contribution useful or as an answer if it does answer your question. That will encourage me - and others - to take time out to help you.
