When I open a pdf-attachment from Outlook via a double click, it opens full screen and I don’t seem to have any options at all.

This used to open an application with lots of options and not in full screen so that I could multitask and easily copy-paste from it and there also was a printing option.

How can I get all these options back and stop it from opening pdf-files in full screen?

Is it also possible to only search for text within an attachment and not within the message body?

For my job, I regularly need to do the same or very similar search queries in Outlook.

Is there a way to save my Search queries so I can reuse them later rather than needing to redo them each time?

I’m looking for a way to more easily recognize internal mail, i.e. mail coming from our @company.com domain.

I’ve been successful to do this for several external domains via Conditional Formatting (as described in Highlight mail from a specific domain) but when I try this for our own domain, it doesn’t work.

Is there a way to achieve this either via Conditional Formatting or a Search Folder for our internal mail as well?

I’ve been trying to use my mouse less for common computer tasks. With a little practice and the right keyboard shortcuts, this often ends up to be much quicker than using my mouse as well.

As I search through my emails on a regular basis, I was wondering whether there are any useful search shortcuts in Outlook?

After installing Office 2003 Service Pack 3, my Scan-to-Email function on my scanner now generates an error message from Outlook:

"The command line argument is not valid. Verify the switch you are using."

I did not have any problems with this until SP3 was installed. How can I get it to work again?
