  1. Solved Outlook (Office 2021): emails spontaneously disappear from inbox

    Yes. Funny that my ancient device settings (Time Warner Cable), will not even be discussed by Spectrum Tech Support (Spectrum bought Time Warner Cable). Oh well. In the end it was my own fault for not realizing a POP account will (can) remove messages from the web mail server AND device that...
  2. Best email client (free or paid) OTHER than Outlook

    Interesting! Will look into it. Thanks. So lots mentions of only two: eM Client or Thunderbird.
  3. Best email client (free or paid) OTHER than Outlook

    Spot on. I learned that the hard way; POP account (set up 13 years ago on Vista PC) took all the emails from my webmail server AND snatched them right out of the Outlook Inbox (IMAP). My fault for not knowing what I am doing, and not staying up to date w/tech :(
  4. Best email client (free or paid) OTHER than Outlook

    Yes. But despise having to log in to see if an important email arrives. Sounds petty perhaps. I just want a client that is reliable, and has the ability to set up mail filters....and as a bonus to import mail from Outlook 2021 and/or old Vista Win Mail.
  5. Best email client (free or paid) OTHER than Outlook

    Wife hates it. Can't insult the wife by going w/what she hates. ;-)
  6. Best email client (free or paid) OTHER than Outlook

    Like a hawk. 👀 :) Wondering: 1) If Thunderbird and/or em Client has a way to import Outlook (MS Office 2021) and/or Vista Windows Mail files. (haven't checked yet) 2) If either will allow me to actually set them up. I tried to set up Thunderbird BEFORE taking a knee to MS Outlook. Thunderbird...
  7. Solved Outlook (Office 2021): emails spontaneously disappear from inbox

    Mine shows "Run AutoArchive every 14 days" which I have Unchecked
  8. Solved Outlook (Office 2021): emails spontaneously disappear from inbox

    Yup, I am very slowly starting to have the advice y'all gave me sink in. Better late than never I guess. I can only find the .ost file it's >400 MB. (I unhid files in that folder but no .pst)
  9. Solved Outlook (Office 2021): emails spontaneously disappear from inbox

    Yes it helps a lot, thank you. I had it all wrong in my mind how this all works. 1) My "webmail" is actually webmail.spectrum.net (not TWC as I said) 2) Windows Mail on Vista PC (old PC) and is POP 3) Outlook as part of MS Office 2021 on new Win 11 Pro (new PC) is IMAP 4) iPhone mail app (is...
  10. Solved Outlook (Office 2021): emails spontaneously disappear from inbox

    OK, apologies for not being clear previously. Here's a list of more answered/clarified questions: TWC.com is the server. TWC.com web server email account is currently 10% full. Inbox on TWC.com inbox is completely empty. (Local folders in TWC inbox still have mail). I meant iPhone is receiving...
  11. Best email client (free or paid) OTHER than Outlook

    (Win 11 Pro, Outlook as part of Office 2021) Apologies for looking for it offered on a platter but if you read my plight w/Outlook perhaps you might forgive. I have done hours of google search & reading reviews but you folks here don't seem to have any vested interest in recommendations as...
  12. Vista Windows Mail messages to Windows 11 Mail

    I can't explain it but I did get it to work! The bad news is I cannot reproduce it (yet perhaps). I exported mail from Vista, thumb drived it the Win 11 Outlook where they were EML files (seemed odd), and then dragged then into Outlook. It worked, seriously. I was shocked. If I can reproduce...
  13. Solved Outlook (Office 2021): emails spontaneously disappear from inbox

    Well, it's an ugly, ugly, puzzle. But since y'all asked, here goes: I have 4 devices that can access same email account; 1) web based (my ISP) (never used till today), total space just 10% of capacity. 2) VISTA PC - old Windows Mail (POP, used exclusively up till a month ago). 3) an iPhone...
  14. Solved Outlook (Office 2021): emails spontaneously disappear from inbox

    1) This AM I noticed ALL my Inbox emails older than 2 weeks were gone (not in Trash), just gone (note: emails in various folders still there). 2) Then I watched in horror as the remaining emails (w/n 2 weeks old) spontaneously evaporated. Not 365 but Office 2021 edition w/Outlook IMAP server...
