Hi Dave,

Let me work with you on this problem. I'm going to run through a few steps with you. Some of these are diagnostic — they help me narrow down what's wrong, not fix it outright. So if nothing changes after a step, that's normal and expected, not a dead end. I'll keep going until we've got this resolved.

  1. Is it an Outlook.com account?
  2. Are you sure are on Outlook for Web, or on New Outlook for Windows?

I look forward to hearing from you to get the results of the troubleshooting.
