Sometimes Outlook emails disappear due to an issue of configuration in your settings, account inactivity, email rules set up on Outlook, and emails moved to a deleted folder.
Outlook accounts disappearing

Hi
I'm having constant issues with disappearing mailboxes. So for example I have 8 mailboxes in one Outlook profile all using IMAP
I setup all the mailboxes which will authenticate / populate / download / sync all emails and folders. Then I'll leave the machine for a day or so and then I'll open Outlook and half of the profiles will have disappeared
This has been happening for a few months I've;
- Reinstalled Office
- Rebuild Outlook and Windows profile
- Ran Dism and SFC
- Ran all OS and Office updates however this has been happening in previous versions too
- This is also happening one other machines using the same mailboxes
- Ran deep/thorough anti virus and malware scans
The next thing is rebuild the machine, but it's a remote machine 100 miles away from me
Can anyone help??
Regards,
Sam
