Hi all,

I know I can install office 365 on upto 5 devices. I know I have to log in on the PC I want to install on using my account. If I want to put it on my brothers or mums PC, would they need access to my account to use office? As I use it for email ect, or is it just for installation?
 
What I mean is, can they use it with their own ms account for emails, skydrive ect, or do all installs need to access the master account?

Got a problen with displaying emails in Outlook. The screenshot below shows the problem. I use a high contrast theme in Windows.

Just looks like you need to click the click here to download pictures by default it won't so emails look like that.
 
Just to add.
Because of metalmackeys bad eyesight everything needs to be in high contrast so that he can see it so the emails being like this is not really suitable.
 
nope. it's by design and they won't change it.

if you're not using exchange, there really is no point in using outlook.

windows live mail is far better for many reasons.

better rendering of email
better managing of gmail (ok you might not even use it :p)
you can drag drop mail between outlook.com/gmail accounts. outlook doesn't support this (again something useful for me)
WLM shows upcoming outlook.com calendar appointments in the sidebar for days/weeks ahead. outlook only shows todays appointments.
the sidebar calendar shows days in bold when they are appointments. there is no indication at all in outlook so you have to look at the full calendar.
note the drafts folder in your outlook says "this computer only". you cannot work on emails in your online drafts folder. WLM suports this.
