• Need to count calls on certain days in certain time slots

  Yes it does change, will not work for 2016, but it works for excel online at office.com, which is free with a microsoft account. Source: 5 months ago

• Change SharePoint Start Page for All

  When our users go to office.com, login and click the waffle for SharePoint, I want to change this landing page. Right now, it goes to https://ourdomain.sharepoint.com/_layouts/15/sharepoint.aspx and once users are in SP, if they ever click the home button it will direct them to this page as well. I want to change this to a new site we created that makes browsing our sites and sharing information/events much... Source: 5 months ago

• Has anyone seen same behavior with AAD laptops reaching out to internal DCs on ports 88, 389, and 445

• The open calendar, task and note space is a mess

  Likewise, I expected kolab to appear in TFA's list of evaluated options, as I knew it has been around for a while and covered most (all?) of the author's requirements. IIRC it was a key element in Munich's initial 'let's move to GNU/Linux' project, so I imagined it had received a LOT of updates for those few years. The repo [0] looks like it's still getting lots of love. The commercial entity doing much of the... - Source: Hacker News / over 2 years ago
