I checked on the Microsoft server and that's fine, so remarkably Microsoft has managed to roll out an email client that can synchronise contacts with other providers but not its own.

Then the bad news: my Outlook/Exchange account Contacts list doesn't show up in New Outlook. My other email accounts (iCloud, Gmail and Microsoft Exchange) all appeared to migrate OK, and the associated Calendar and Contact information also showed up in Outlook, whereas on "Old" Outlook the iCloud and Gmail Contacts and Calendar weren't readily available (I have been using PieSync to synchronise my contacts across platforms). However now I've tried it out I have found that there are other issues.Īs expected, the account wouldn't migrate, but as I really only use that account for billing and other BT-related stuff I decided to overcome that issue by switching my MyBT emailing address to my iCloud account (when I set the account up many years ago that wasn't an option). I checked with Outlook support to confirm that if I switch to New Outlook I can switch back without any loss of data or settings answer was yes, and I have found that to be correct.

A quick update on the state of New Outlook for Mac users (I just got the 16.47 Beta).
