I found you late if found earlier so its help me a lot. I am also facing sending email problem in Outlook To OneNote. I was found some MS One Note Support person to get genuine service to sort all my issue about One Note.

I am having the same problem in that when I want to send an email in outlook to OneNote, I no longer can type in the place I want to send it to and the new method of finding the right folder takes more time.

The format for transferring Outlook 365 emails to OneNote 365 individual pages has changed. How do I go back?

"Then the OneNote application will be launched automatically with the content of selected emails. Please click Close button to close it."
This is the part I have a problem with. Is there a way to stop OneNote from launching? If I want to send a bunch of emails to OneNote, It's time consuming and distracting to have to keep closing the OneNote window. fyi,I always have ON running in my task bar anyway.

I've got the connection set-up, but when I click to send to OneNote it's not pulling up all my Notebooks. It's only looking at one notebook and the others are there and syncing, just not available for me to send an Outlook message to. Any thoughts?

Is there any way to include this action as part of a macro (or similar) that will also categorise/delete/move the e-mail as part of the 'Send to OneNote' process? We archive important information to shared OneNote notebooks and this would help avoid copying it there twice.

This works fine for me, but I was wondering if there's anyway to set it up so that when you've sent it to OneNote it can then delete the e-mail or assign it a category to indicate that it's been saved to OneNote?

I have a user with the same issue. Mike -- have you found an answer? Adam, my user is logged into Outlook and OneNote with the same work account.

Hi Rita. We uninstalled an earlier version of One-note from the PC and re-booted. Problem was still there. We then checked about 10 days later and the "Send to OneNote" function did work. During the intervening 10 days Windows and Office updates were applied and there was another re-boot, but I don't know why the function started working unless it was a result of the updates applied.

Hi. If using Office2016. For some reason MSOffice installs 2 versions of OneNote. An old version and the OneNote 2016 version. Make sure you are using the 2016 version and have this open the first time you try to send an e-mail from Outlook to OneNote. Then it should work OK. It doesn't work if the old version is open.

This doesn't work with outlook 2016 / onenote. I've run OneNote a dozen times but all I get when I try and send from Outlook to OneNote is the message saying that OneNote needs to set itself up. If they were products from competing companies I could understand. But why doesn't Microsoft test its own products working with each other ? I've wasted so many hours with the latest Office 365.

Are you connected to both applications through the same MS Account under File/Account?
