WC 1M Post Challenge - You Ready?!

re: WPC 10K Post Challenge - You Ready?!

Everything was just handled much better by Windows Live Mail in my case. But that doesn't support Exchange.

But maybe my account situation is just too complicated: I have on Live account without mail address for contacts and appointments. I have one personal mail address which I access by IMAP. Then I have two Exchange accounts, which I had only temporary so I didn't want to use them for contacts and appointments and accessed therefore also by IMAP. Works perfectly with Windows Live Mail, couldn't make it work with Office 2013.

Now I would use an Exchange account as main account, and just the personal mail address over IMAP. I think even Outlook 2013 could handle that.

I'm sure it will be fine. I haven't tried multiple accounts thoroughly with 2013. I have to upgrade my wife's Outlook to give it a try. She's got a few email accounts. I only have an outlook.com account.

I think I remembered wrongly. I migrated a few weeks after that everything to Windows Live. When I bought Outlook 2013 I still used one Exchange account. Outlook 2013 just defined this as standard then, and didn't integrate the Windows Live data directly, it was always in a different register. And there was no way to always use Live as standard, I was able to set it as standard to some extend, but it still put the (empty) Exchange contacts first. I think that was the main problem.

How do you see the stats? I noticed Wandering Traveller posting stats. Can anyone see those or only you 'special' people.

I've always used my Live account as default since 2007. I would find that a big odd that it would have changed in 2013. I know that when I set up 2013 there was no issue. Then again, I never used exchange and a Live account at the same time. I've been using Outlook since 2003 as my mail at home. I like it a lot and I know to some people it's an overkill but I like it.

I used Outlook up to Office 2007. Then I bought Office 2010 and found Windows Live Mail sufficient for all my needs. But... heck, I'll just buy it again. I hope Microsoft won't tell me: "A few months ago you wanted your money back, and now you're coming crawling back on your knees?!"

I think they'll just be happy to have the money!

You can view the source of any website so the code they use.

I understand I can see the code but how does that help?

I'm not much of a code person I know HTML and I know some Javascript but I can't program.

I'll get 12 months of Xbox Live Gold with Office. Is that any good without an Xbox?

Not really. Only found use of Xbox Live Gold on Xbox.

Okay, thanks. I don't think I'll own a Xbox within the next 12 months.

Don't worry, I don't own an Xbox either and don't plan to own one so it's useless to me too.

First off- to all "universe is 3D or 4D" conversation..... I think this reality is all a dream of a 2D giant in Rainbow World anyways. So, as I can't prove it, I vote we are living in LTED. 3D and 4D is just too slow.

But I decided to wait with buying office until I have started at the new place and after I bought my new laptop. That makes probably the most sense.
