Ask again before opening an attachment
I used your previous tip to get rid of the Save/Open prompt when double clicking an attachment. Now I want to undo that for several file types.
How can I undo that?
Manual meeting responds tracking
On occasion, it could happen that message tracking is not working correctly and responses are not automatically recorded in Outlook. You could still process and track those responses manually then to still have an up-to-date reference on who is coming and who is not.
This method also works for when you got an answer to a meeting invitation via telephone, at the water cooler or via any other means besides Outlook.
Importing from Outlook Express, Windows Mail or Windows Live Mail on Windows 7, Windows 8 or Windows 10
I’ve just switched to Windows 10 and found that it no longer ships with a mail client as Outlook Express in Windows XP, Windows Mail in Windows Vista, nor can I download and install Windows Live Mail anymore. My version of Office does contain Outlook and I now want to use that.
How do I get all my original emails into Outlook?
"You’ve got mail" voice
Yesterday’s post got several responses with questions about a “You’ve got mail” voice. Some people would like to know how to turn it on and others would like to know how to turn it off.
High priority mail sounds 3 annoying loud beeps
When I receive a message which is marked with high priority, Outlook plays 3 loud beeps. As I often wear a headset, it really hurts my ears.
How can I disable this annoying sound?
Adding contact details to an email
I need to send someone some contact details but those contact details need to be in the message text and not send as an attachment (I don't know if the receiver can open vcf- or msg-files).
How can I quickly insert these details?
Accepting an iCal invitation
I received a meeting invitation from someone but I cannot accept the meeting invitation as I can't use the Accept, Decline and Tentative buttons.
I believe the sender used iCal on a Mac to send me this meeting request.
Is there any way I can still accept this so it will go into my Outlook Calendar?
Empty Task List in To-Do Bar
Today I started Outlook and my Task List was completely empty which is (sadly) definitely not the case. At the top there is some flashing/scrolling red bar and it says that it is still loading but after waiting a few hours and restarting Outlook, it is still empty.
How can I make my tasks visible again in the To-Do Bar?
Find all contacts older than…
We've got a large group of people in a contacts folder and now I have to determine who of them are older than a specific age. For each of them we've entered the birthday date already but I don't know how to go from there.
Is there an easy way to filter Contacts based on their age?
Color subject for receiver
How can I change the color of the subject text so that it will stand out a bit more at the receiver's side?
