It works really nice for me because I have 3 Windows 8.1 PCs at home and one at work. It automatically syncs my sent and received email between the two and I dont have to have Outlook licenses on all 3 PCs

It happened again today. I can confirm that it is caused by the Mail App. It seems to be related to moving the app into split screen mode. I tried removing the Mail App and reinstalling it. I still needed a reboot to fix the issue.

I think you're the first person I've ever heard from that uses the Mail app.

I will take that as a compliment

If you'd like. It isn't an insult, at least. As long as it isn't http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=lotus notes

I am just kidding with you. I actually like the mail client for what it is. I know its no Outlook, but its fine for what I am using it for.

Here is my question. Why does everything have to be sponsored? Its ok to get sponsors to help out on big events where major resources are required. Here is the thing that bothers me, Why are we having simple 30 minute webinars that are sponsored by someone. Really, how much do these webinars cost to run? $200 or less. That is pennies to the big behometh that website has become. It just makes you question the quality of the material. Are they going to cater the webinars to fall in line with a vendors product in the future?

Because of their staff size, it actually costs a fortune to do anything. It takes a lot of man hours to put on even a trivial event. Add to that that they are a business and all they sell is advertising, of course everything has to be sponsors. Why would they do something for free?

I have lots of complaints but that is not one. That's just business.

Now quality control, that is its own issue.

I disagree, Scott. I dont pretend to know more about business than you, but here is my take on it.

The whole feel of SW is changing from community driven to vendor driven. The webinars should be a way to attract new members to the community. Its a small price to pay compared to other means of advertising. I can tell you from the employee side of the coin, I am very skeptical when I see sponsored webinars. We get badgered by sales people on a daily basis and dont have anywhere near the budget to get involved in every new product we see. I am not 100% sure on this, but I would think MSPs are seen as more valuable to vendors and sales people since you can push their product to others.

Is anyone else skeptical when you see sponsored webinars?

There are a few Spicy Peppers that avoid me now because of my participation on here. Anyone else on Mangolassi experience this?

Really?

Yeah, definitely. I dont get messages from them anymore and/or they no longer joke with me.

I thought you disappeared :-P, I was eventually going to PM you but... I started cutting my spiceworks usage back as well.... I'm no longer in the top participants per day, week, or month anymore.

I started to cut back my posting even before Mangolassi. The whole power struggle in SP soured me on the site.

Oh god I know dude don't worry. There was a post @Nic interim in the administration and moderation group that honestly just screwed everything up. @Bill-Kindle stepped down due to it, and I followed shortly after. He asked me to help GA a group and well... I started too but... we were overrode by those "above" us... but yet they were equals. He stepped down, I stayed on for a month or two, and after this recent spat I decided I'm not going to help for free, cut me out. There are hidden people who fight in the admin group that no-one knows about. There are hidden insults in the admin group that no-one knows about. Its a real ego struggle that started kicking me back.

I always knew that was going on. You could see it in SPs so , I had every reason to believe it was going on higher levels. I believe some of the recent SPs are SW people or heavily influenced by them. You can just see a change in the culture when all those members hit SP in the matter of a week.

@RAM. Thanks for the mentioning me, buddy.

I post on that other website less for a few reasons:

Quality over Quantity. The people over here are top problem solvers for the other website.

****The other site is now run by vendors. Every thing they do is sponsored by a vendor. To me that means that there is an obvious motive for every event. No vendor is going to pay for sponsoring an event and receive nothing in return. ****

The power struggle a few months ago showed that money was the number one concern of the other website now. You can see they are just hiring like crazy. You cant hire the best people anymore when you are constantly hiring. From my understanding, Everyone that was employed with them in the past was highly technical. If you have observed some of the new employees, you will know that is no longer the case. They are just like the sales people that haunt us on a daily basis.

Loss of vision and backbone. They definitely lost their original vision. They are no longer good guys that sell ads just to pay for development of their helpdesk software. There is money being passed around like crazy. When you have so much money from different places coming in, you dont want to offend anyone. That is why you are starting to see less and less heated discussions.

Speaking to the point in bold, the two webinars I've taken part in have both been for Virtualization and Group Policy (in about 30 minutes) have both been sponsored by AntiVirus vendors. Kinda weird, not saying anything bad about it but if they are paying to put the spot there.....

When I check the settings it was already set to 102MB. The user was still getting the error message because he did not exit and reopen outlook. Thanks everyone

I dont think EU is what the US is after. I think its China

I have been hit by a Bull Shark so that should lower my odds of other things right? Super Scary feeling btw. It swam right into me like a train

I have the utmost respect for anyone who has been a victim of a terrorist attack. I dont want to downplay how serious they can be but....

Since Sept 11,2001 there have been more people in the U.S. attacked by Sharks than attacked by terrorists. If someone came up to your door and promised you safety from shark attacks if you let them have access to your data, you would laugh right? Why dont people think about terrorists attacks the same way? There are so uncommon its ridiculous, yet people give up all the freedom for the .000000000000000000000000001% (fake number but I bet its even lower than that) chance that you might be involved in one

thanks. I was able to change it via the GUI, but I would rather use Powershell.

It works on my mailbox. This is bizarre

hey now, being outside of the in group sometimes has its advantages. Sometimes the less you know, the better off you are

As to the SW/Mango thing, I'm personally just staying above all the shenanigans. SW is a lot more busy than Mango right now, so I tend to post more there than here. I do try to browse when I have time and contribute when I can. It is just so much more volume there right now and I'm sure Mango will get busier and busier as time moves forward.

I have personal grievances with them sadly at this point :-/, I try not to hold grudges but... some need to exist for us to move forward.

I think I finally put 2 and 2 together

Where is @Bill-Kindle when you need him? LOL

I thought about buying it just because its handmade and worth the $60, but I could not display it.

How about this Joel, you buy it and I'll do you a favor and display it in my living room :-P.

Drive on down here, then.
