I’ve got my Gmail account configured as an IMAP account in Outlook. I noticed that when I delete a message from my mailbox in Outlook, I can still find it online in Gmail’s All Mail folder.

Is there a way to set it up so that when I delete it from Outlook, it is also deleted from Gmail?

I know how to Categorize a message that I have received or once I have sent it; There is a big Categorize button for that on the Ribbon.

Why is this button not available and how can I Categorize a message before sending it?

When I use my Outlook.com account via the browser rather than in Outlook, I seem to miss some basic features or I simply can’t seem to find them.

For instance, how can I Forward a message or use Reply All?

Where can I find these commands?

This can be quite confusing sometimes and I often worry if all my meetings and appointments are still scheduled on the correct time.

What is the best way to configure Outlook in this situation?

I'm trying to set a reminder on a message but I only have the option to flag it or to clear the flag. There are no options such as Today, Tomorrow, This Week, Next Week, etc... which I'm supposed to get.

This might have something to do with the fact that I'm using a IMAP account.

Is there still a way to mark my messages for follow up or at least get them to show up as a Task in my To-Do Bar?

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

Some queries are a bit more complex so redoing them each time is a bit cumbersome.
