Print multiple notes or short emails on a single page

Print multiple notes or short emails on a single page

I've got a list of notes in Outlook's Notes folder which I would like to print. However, as these notes are quite short, I wish to save some paper and print multiple notes on a single page.

I've tried selecting all the notes that I would like to print and then use the print option, but this does still make Outlook to print each note to a separate page.

How can I print my notes the way I want them to?

Storing files directly in Outlook folders

Storing files directly in Outlook folders

I just noticed that I could drag & drop files (doc, docx, xls, pdf, png, etc...) directly into Outlook folders. Basically this would allow me to use Outlook as a single storage location for as long as I have space in my mailbox, instead of saving these files separately in Explorer.

Are there any downsides to this method and is this actually even supported by Microsoft?

Sorting additional Calendar and Contacts folders

Sorting additional Calendar and Contacts folders

Looking at my Calendar folders, I see that they are grouped in My Calendars, Other Calendars, Shared Calendars and Rooms. I see similar groups for my Contacts folders.

While this adds some structure, I still sometimes lose the overview in my long list of additional Calendar and Contacts folders.

Is there a way to also organize them by project, colleagues, department, etc...?
