    My company migrated to Exchange/Outlook a few months ago, and everything has been working fine. But suddenly, a few days ago, my full name disappeared and was replaced by my e-mail address. No action on my end, no update of Outlook or OS. None of the methods described earlier in the thread work - setting to StartTLS doesn't stick, but reverts to Use SSL. I am not presented with any setting to not sync with the Cloud when I set up the new account. Now I'm back on legacy Outlook, which is such a joke.

    This was just one of several issues that I was facing when using Outlook. To solve them, I simply started using Apple's Mail app for OSX and iOS. I am finding that Mail has none of the problems that I encountered with Outlook, and its performance is much faster.
