Should read: I hate when Outlook becomes LIKE a sprawling file share WITH nested folders upon nested folders, upon nested folders, upon nested folders, upon nested folders.

Remove it and show her how to access via OWA. Nine times out of ten, these users claim they want access but very rarely look at the legacy account. I more so treat it as an archive and have those users pull up what they need via OWA. If necessary (for a bunch of nested folders), you could always spin up a VM with access to that exec's (it's an exec mailbox, right?) Outlook.

What happens if she's opening her own mailbox in OWA? Does she have any addins installed on Outlook?

Note; both her and the other account have exchange archive set to 12 months, so in retrospect the second account shouldn't have that much mail as she left 10 months ago. ________________________________ From: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: RE: [Exchange] Troubled outlook user Date: Mon, 27 Jul 2015 16:27:00 -0700 The one constant in all that is... the user. How many rules does she have? How many items in her Inbox? How many other mailboxes are loading along with hers in the same profile? ________________________________ From: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: RE: [Exchange] Troubled outlook user Date: Mon, 27 Jul 2015 19:16:16 -0400 Outlook 2010 and Ex 2010 on premise and BESExpress 5 Jean-Paul Natola ________________________________ From: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: [Exchange] Troubled outlook user Date: Mon, 27 Jul 2015 19:13:41 -0400 Hi all, I have one user that is cursed by outlook, over a long period of time she had had the following symptoms on Outlook (NOT OWA); Outlook search stops working (on both laptop and PC) Outlook Crashes on 2 laptops and one PC Outlook stops updating Outlook Freezes Steps I have taken; Move mailbox Rebuild outlook profile Rebuild windows profile Turn off cached mode Format PC Format laptop 2x Finally she gets a new surface (the laptops were kind of old and crappy), she's happy & humming along; and within the first 24 hours I get the call, outlook crashed on the new surface right in the middle of a long email. Her mailbox is only about 4 GB (though with A LOT of folders) And the ONE THING that has not failed in all this time is "drum roll please" You guessed it, her BLACKBERRY I don't want to delete her mailbox as she is pretty high on the chain, but dont know where else to turn. Any thoughts/comments and/or feedback would be greatly appreciated. J
