Interesting.

Frankly it only makes sense for MS to allow all their services access to online versions of Office whenever possible, for example your EOP1 plan - that's really cool that they will open an Excel sheet in Online Excel when using OWA, if they didn't it would severely limit the use (not that we weren't limited for decades).

Well the name.nk2 file itself might be retired, but the autocomplete listings are still there and are not fixed when someone changes addresses.

I had this problem last year in Outlook 2013

They only way to fix that would be to clear the auto complete list. That's solely based on the most common emailed addresses. It's per user and doesn't store on exchange in anyway (and isn't sync with OWA, OWA uses it's own list)

Oh the thread, I see.

Did you try disabling it then re-enabling it?

Did you turn it off and back on again? 😉

The problem with that though is that it fails on multiple services. Both Outlook web app and IMAP (ManageEngine ServiceDesk). So this to me indicates a higher level problem as they can individually disabled..

I'm with you on Google Apps. It's a good product but it is very limited and doesn't have the look and feel of modern apps. I don't like using Gmail either. It's unnecessarily quirky and busy. Google doesn't make things as fun to use or as easy to use as they could.

I think that the Chromebook model is better than it seems. Only problem is is that businesses are struggling to adapt to it. But it is a business problem and failing, not a Google one. Google supplies the tools, business can't grok them.

In the same vein, the Linux world has everything businesses need and have for a decade or more and yet almost no businesses have cares to go down the 100% Linux path regardless of the massive savings and ease of use once the transition is over.
