Outlook 2010 RTM, Personal Folders Out of Alphabetical Order
in [Outlook]
|
From: howardagoldberg on 6 May 2010 20:40 I am using Office ProPlus 2010 RTM on Win7 Enterprise. In Outlook 2010 ... in the folder listing under Personal Folders: when I first load Outlook, all the folders are in proper alphabetical order. After moving emails from one of my IMAP inboxes to one of the Personal Folders (via a move to operation or via rules), those folders that have items moved into them become displaced ... and instead of showing up in alphabetical order, end up being listed in a random location in the list (although, the "offending" folders tend to get clustered near one another). Closing down Outlook and reloading clears the issue, but it returns with every move to/rules operation. Thoughts? Thanks, Howie

From: howardagoldberg on 7 May 2010 00:10 Milly, I haven't. Thanks for the suggestion. Before I give that a shot however, from what I can see, the switch is for restoring default views. I don't believe that is the issue ... the issue is that Outlook loses the alphabetical order of the folders in the primary PST file after moving files from an IMAP folder to a folder in "outlook.pst." Any theories as to why that would be happening and how the clearviews switch might solve the problem?
