Michael Frank

So.... Help Desk just told me that the way to fix my Outlook problem is to turn my computer off every night.
djsmiley2k
weeeeeeeeeee
@MichaelFrank they likely aren't wrong
if your problem is 'outlook picks up email every night'
Michael Frank
21:47
Outlook stops receiving email each night, then when I restart the app it crashes on launch, forcing me to restart.

Canadian Luke
I'm really not liking the practice CompTIA Linux+ exams I'm finding online...
