Note: This not only applies to Contacts and Calendar folders but to all folders which are marked with “This computer only”, including Tasks, Notes and Journal folders.

It is still perfectly possible to set things up in a separated way as it was in Outlook 2010.īecause of the different configuration options, there are various ways to make a proper backup of your data. In Outlook 2010, Calendar and Contact items were stored in a separate pst-file from the mail items but in Outlook 2013, 2016, 2019, and Office 365 everything is included in the single IMAP ost-file.Īctually, I should say "everything can be included", as it is only required to do so when you set your IMAP data file as the default in Outlook 2013 or later. This includes my Calendar and Contacts folder as well which I really cannot afford to lose. These folders I indeed cannot find back on the server. If you'd like to remove these synced contacts, you can toggle this switch at any time and they will be removed from your address book.I'm using an IMAP account in Outlook as part of Office 365 and I noticed that various folders now have "This computer only" behind them.
