I use outlook 2010 beta with outlook connector. Under my hotmail account
folder in outlook, there appears a folder named "news feed". I don't want
this folder and deleted it. But it keeps appearing again. How do I prevent
this?
 
Disable the social connector addin. (Its under File tab, options)

Hi, Thanks for the tip on removing the add-in. Is there a way to
configure the add-in to not create 20 folders (it does that now on my
outlook 2010 beta client) but maybe create only 3 folders ?

How can I use these newsfeed folders to get social news?

Thanks
Krams
 
What type of email account do you have?

It should only create one folder, which is kinda useless right now for
everyone except sharepoint 2010 users, since the folder is for the feeds
displayed in the social connector.

On my business computer running Outlook 2010 with Exchange, it makes 1
News Feed folder. On a second computer using Outlook Connector with 2
emails accounts (both MS live.com accounts), it makes 17 News Feed
folders. Each time I delete them, they reappear. I can deal with 1 but
not more, as this makes the list of folders in my primary account far
too long.
 
@Diane: Re: What type of email account do you have?
Diane, The email account under which this shows up is hotmail. I had
two hotmail accounts setup and once I disabled the Social connector
and deleted the 20 Newsfeed folders in each account, the problem went
away. No more Newsfeed folders show up now.

Disabling the social connector under File-->Options-->Add-ins also
worked for me. Thanks!
