Folders titled IPM Subtree in outlook mail

in my hotmail, I have folders that import my gmail and aol mail. All of the sudden, each of them is titled Ipm subtree, when I right click it shows the correct name and when I try to rename it doesn't stay, anybody heard or seen this?

 

Hi gpb59, I did a Google and found this: IPM_SUBTREE Outlook and the vanishing emails - Oneiroi
I don't use Outlook so I have not experienced your problem. I hope this may help you and answer your question.

 

the link supplied on that page led to a microsoft page that said the page doesn't exist

 

Sorry I didn't try the link, but the comments probably says it all - 7 years ago

Office 365 hidden folder
The link in this one works but if you wish to get help from MS, you will need to sign in with account details etc.

 

it;s not the office pogram, it's outlook mail on the web (outlooklive,com)

 

I have exactly the same issue, for the last couple of days. It doesn't occur if I go to the outlook beta page, but I can't work out how to view my emails properly on that page, (can't seem to view them in full page mode instead of one third page), so have been avoiding the change.

 

yeah I just looked at the email on the outlook program, no problem there, but I dont use it, just outlook on the web, very strange
