I need to sync emails between outlook2010 and sharepoint 2010. I have been searching, but found syncing contacts, calendars and tasks. Links and examples will be appreciated.
Question: What is the best way to achieve this?
Take a look at the Sharepoint webpart OWAInboxPart which will display email from Exchange without having to store the emails within Sharepoint.
The question is Why? Outlook is a communication tool not a storage facility. There is an outlook web parts in SharePoint that allow you to display email in sharepoint if this is your goal.

is it possible to sync an existing shared calendar in outlook to Sharepoint online site? I am aware of the way to connect a Sharepoint calendar back to Outlook.
As of now there is no way to get this done, the sync is not supported for SharePoint online. Also the overlay calendar for Exchange doesn't work in SPO( Exchange calendar issue) All you can do is build AAD app use outlook/Graph APIs get the information from Outlook and display it in SharePoint (Check this blog). If you want to display it in Calendar view you will have to use plugins like Full calendar to do that.
Can I get any suggestion on sending email to a SharePoint group when a site is created on SharePoint Online out of box.
Thank you in advance
According to my experience, there is no OOTB method to achieve this requirement.
There is no site created trigger action in flow and for SharePoint add-in, there is no site-level trigger event.
how do I connect an Outlook calendar to SharePoint Online?
I see the option to add a new calendar but I don't know how to get the correct "Outlook Web Access URL" and "Exchange Web Service URL".
Am I on the right track?
Thanks!
SharePoint Online Doesn't support Calendar overlay with Exchange web service.
The same question is answered here:

Yes it's possible. You can sync using Power Automate. The SharePoint Calendar is a SharePoint list with the name "Calendar". It's a simple PowerAutomate workflow with few steps which you can set up in a few minutes. In case you want to use a Shared Mailbox you can sync the calendar from therein when you share this calendar with your personal mailbox. Then you will see it in Power Automate shown as Calendar to retrieve events from.
Please note: SharePoint Item Action in Power Automate doesn't support all SharePoint List field types, e.g. checkboxes like "All Day Event". Nevertheless you can sync All Day Events which will show up with scheduled time 12pm-12pm.
You can also include SharePoint Calendars as SharePoint Web Part e.g. in a SharePoint Page.
From SharePoint experts, I would like to know if following is possible in SharePoint 2010:
Can we send an offline form (word/excel format document) to SharePoint server by email so that it goes in document management system and undergoes an approval workflow. This feature could be used by users who have only email access and can't access SharePoint portal.
Yes this is a built in feature in SharePoint 2010. You have to enable it in central administration. It is not a simple tasks however. There is a lot of configuration that needs to happen on the server. The documentation is here.
I am trying to find out if there is a way to put a SharePoint Calendar into a normal web-page that will update whenever the SharePoint Calendar is updated. Does anyone know if it's possible?
-Thanks
SharePoint has some standard web services which you can use to access data stored in the SharePoint site.
Look here for an example of how to use these with at calendar
But be aware that the standard SharePoint web services will not allow you to expand recurring events.
