@OriginalGriff - finished your 3d printer box yet?
found an idea for your next project: World's First Explosion Amusement Park! Most Finnish thing ever? - YouTube[^]
I figure Wales is like Finland - mostly empty and sparsely populated by crazy folk (with amusing accents)
of course it would be the second, but being separated from the EU would be relevant for UK to have it's own. (or you could buy a who-drollik press - the guy is quite funny ... "and Here we Go!")
after many otherwise intelligent sounding suggestions that achieved nothing the nice folks at Technet said the only solution was to low level format my hard disk then reinstall my signature. Sadly, this still didn't fix the issue!

Yep! The latest addition to my desk space[^]
What I'm struggling with at the moment is switching to ABS from PLA - getting it to adhere properly and not curl up and lift off is a PITA ...

Did I say anything about Cider? 
I've quaffed* a few pints o' Scrumpy over the years myself.
* It's just like drinking, but you spill more. Particularly if it's not the first pint of Scrumpy

If you are ever in Bristol try the Apple Bar, sells the most vicious scrumpy I have come across, It's by the docks on a boat (?) how nobody's drowned?

I hardly drink at all these days, and definitely not "Vicious Scrumpy"!
It has too many detrimental side effects, like dancing through the park in Minehead singing "The Floral Dance" at the top of our voices ... while a band tried to play something different in the bandstand. Not even sure quite how we got to Minehead, even now.

Oh, I got hung up on "contain" being an indicator, so I didn't think to include it when adding up letters for a potential anagram. Lessons learned.

YES! :fistpump:
That was the plan, or at least part of it.

I need some help with my mail.
I have a Gmail account and another account.
Now, I've set up Gmail so it also receives and sends emails from my other account and I've used it like that for two years now.
I'm using IMAP, but on the mail server all my mails are unread and uncategorized, so it doesn't sync anything except inbox mailserver to inbox Gmail (one way).
Now I want to move from Gmail to Outlook 365 (and separate the two mails again), but that means all my mails are simply synced as an unread list in my inbox.
I've tried Googling, but no solution is really easy or clear.
One problem I have is that everything is in the same Gmail account, so my "sent" folder, for example, contains Gmail and other mails, while I only want the other mails.
Any sent mails are also not synced to the mail server, so they aren't read by Outlook.
Is there any way to sync/export/import everything I've ever did with my other mail account in Gmail to my mail server/Outlook 365?

I've never managed to get Microsoft's idea of what my mail folders should look like and google's idea of them to dovetail so all I can say is best of luck. You may have to get creative, but be careful with necromancy, as it's usually stateful and causes side effects.

gmail + office 365?
Why not just enter the gates of Hell, if you want to suffer that much?

Well, if you must Outlook:
1. You could take a brute force approach. In Outlook, add your gmail account as an IMAP account. Tell it to cache as many months as you want to. Then open the sent folder, do a search on whatever you want, select all and move to whatever folder you want (or create a new one).
2. If your outlook365 account is connected to an exchange server (like O365) and you have admin privileges, you could create a gmail pop account and then import the pst file into exchange... no, don't do that. I did it for 20 users and it was a nightmare. 
If you can keep your head while those about you are losing theirs, perhaps you don't understand the situation.

recently helped move someone with 7 years of email to o365 on-line- he never threw away anything, even the full 7 years of junk mail). previously was pop so already in .pst files. (and when I say "helped" he watched me do it - didn't know how to even start anything like that himself.)
anyway [small blessing] it was already split up by year = 7 pst's
- 4 of them over 1 gig [blessing depreciated]
followed instructions to import the first (smallest) pst, not the most confidence inspiring process.
so decided instead [on his desktop] to:
- add the old .pst files (external pst in accounts & files)
- in the online create a new [year-named] top level folder
- create matching subfolders (Inbox, Sent...) and drag (moved) the contents over from the local/attached .psts
yeah slow, but less farting about than the .pst import
(actually seemed faster too, or at least it didn't just sit there seemingly doing nothing - you could scroll and watch the psts arriving at the destination in date order so could estimate time left)
-----------
so anyway rather than copy all, just add the other account / .psts to o365,
drag and drop only what you want (copy or move)
the detach the other account / .psts

Is this something you have limited? I used other emails on GMail and have not faced any issue.
Alternatively, create a new email. I checked and can confirm that sander_cool_dude on outlook is available.

Nope, I'm not sure what it is or if it's supposed to sync labels too, but it doesn't do so by default it seems.
I've checked the Gmail settings and it seems it should sync labels though.
Creating a new email isn't an issue as I have my own domain name, but that's really not what I want

I have multiple gmail accounts for different purposes and use Thunderbird to transfer emails between accounts without having to forward everything. On occasion I mess up and send from the wrong account.
You can download everything from gmail into Thunderbird, and you should be able to upload into Outlook.
Warning: Thunderbird doesn't understand labels -- it treats them as folders. If an email has more than 1 label, it will get downloaded once for each label.

I recently rewrote the hand rolled Slang parser to make it better.
That was successful. It parses all my test material, and faster than the two previous parsers.
However, I then began reintegrating it back into projects like Deslang and Parsley.
So far so good, except wait, this is curious.
Deslang is no longer able to resolve my LookAheadEnumerator code! (Not even part of the parsing process!)
Funny thing, it can't determine the runtime type for IEnumerator<t> (duh! it has no runtime type - it's an uninstantiated generic!)
I'm not confused as to why it doesn't work. What blows my mind is that it worked before.
I have no idea how. It shouldn't have, as far as I can tell.
And yet, I know it did, because if it didn't, Parsley couldn't even parse word one. LookAheadEnumerator sits right next to its black little heart.
I still have the old codebase, but it's non-trivial to find out why Deslang worked in this case. So much easier to trap error conditions than success
Update: I fixed it all and figured out the old magic. I just convinced myself that magic wouldn't work, but yes Ramona, you can call
typeof(IEnumerator<>).GetMembers()
and get a meaningful result
Update 2: in what was one of may the most hair raising migrations i've encountered since i left the professional fold, I've migrated all of BuildPack to use the new slang parser.
19 projects, all building successfully (which requires slang to work or these build tools error!)
so yay. If this blew up i don't know what i'd do.
