      I don't have any experience with the product, but eM Client looks promising. Pro version allows for adding unlimited accounts. Works with Exchange/Office365.

        Sadly they can't even test the functionality with the free version. But a $50 test isn't so bad....

        There is a lifetime upgrade option for a grand total of $100.

            Again.... it's that Outlook can't handle that many email accounts let alone calendars etc. Looking for a single app to have it all work in.
            OWA is not a relevant option.

            interesting - mine doesn't seem to have any problems

                  I am currently using 5 email accounts and 10! calendars in Outlook 2010, no issues ever except for the Dynamics CRM plugin which is garbage. On prem exchange, but 2 of the mailboxes i have setup in outlook are O365

                  And most of the calendars are near empty

                    1 email account is 1.5 TB of data with 7 years of archives (and yes the archives are searched for old client data on a regular basis so they need to be tied to it locally).
                    another is 80 gigs the rest are pretty small

                      OK - Outlook is having an issue with the number of accounts (I gotta believe that it's related to the caching, but what do I know).

                      What about App V? Now I don't think normal people can get access to App V (I think requires Volume License and other things) and I have NO clue what it takes to build one or use it, etc.

                      So what if we make it a little simpler - A VM with Office installed inside it? Then the user can have two copies of Outlook running side by side, one with 4 accounts and one with 3.

                      Yes there will be licensing costs, but to solve the issue, it might be worth it.

                      Additional VMs can be created if 4 or 3 accounts can't co-exist in a single copy of Outlook.

                        terabytes? That is a crazy stupid amount of email. I really hope that our not really technical @Minion-Queen screwed that up.

                              That's better and more believable 🙂

                                      So anyway.. despite my typing spelling and just plain got it wrong issues.

                                      What about what @Dashrender asked above

                                        Isn't there a way to run Outlook in some sort of container on the desktop to split up multiple copies of it without needing a full VM with a full additional operating system for it?

                                          Yeah, it's call App-V.

                                            That is what @Dashrender jsut suggested with App-V. But that is not something small to setup.
