Greetings, all -
Last week, we upgraded from Office 2010/2013 to O365/2016.
Prior to this upgrade, Outlook would show the status of those in the People list; the window that's part of the To-Do Bar. Those away would show yellow, offline showed as grey, busy as red, etc.
Now, with the upgrade, there is no status indicator at all. However, Skype for Business does show the indicator; in an inferior way to what Lync showed previously, but it's there.
I checked the registry to ensure that Lync was the default IM service and it is. Other search results seemed to indicate that making Lync the default IM service would fix the problem, but not in this case.
Further, the prior version of Outlook would also show the status of each individual included in an email; sender, to and CC. But, those status indicators are also gone.
Can anyone help me in getting the status indicator to show for those contacts in the People window and in emails?
Even better, can anyone let me know how to get the look of ALL Office 2016 to revert BACK to what it was with 2010? I don't need to see anyone's picture in the contact list or People window, for one; that just takes up real estate that could be better used for something else. Also, the larger font is most annoying and restricts the list of contacts in the People viewer to fewer than I could see in Outlook 2010.
Thanx in advance for any assistance!
