Hi there... Is it possible to transfer licence from one computer to another? I am testing Kutools at home. But I am planning to only purchase 2 user licences for my office. So I would like to cancel Kutools on my Home PC and install it on 2 Office PCs.

I am looking for a tool to Auto CC & BCC myself on all outgoing e-mails using Outlook 2010. I have tried "rules" and other utilities & thought yours might work but it does not. Is this something that is no longer possible in Outlook?

How do I turn off the Kutools for Outlook popup that notifies me of a blocked email? The little purple window on the left. This is too annoying. I'm getting dozens of them, one after another.

KuTools displays a pop-up "found junk" notice that interferes with my work. I can't do my work until I've deleted it. I don't want to see when junk is found. I just want it gone. I'll check it later.

I also downloaded the trial version today so I can always have my default account be the "reply to" address. But Kutools isn't working with that set in options. Per Mark's post, I can't find where to set the defautl account in Kutools. For me it is only set in "Account Settings". I am using outlook 2016(365) and have two accounts ...@outlook.com & ...@gmail.com ...gmail is set as the default account but the reply to comes up as ...@outook.com Whats wrong with the program?

Purchased because Outlook 2016 was not catching junk mail effectively. After recreating all 6 of my email accounts in Outlook with identical settings, Kutools filters junk effectively for 3 of 6 accounts. I've used "Block Sender" and/or "Block Sender Domain" for hundreds of emails with no success. Any suggestions?
