Does anyone have any suggestions how I might restore it to it's original small size?

In Outlook 2003 I used categories to define the kind of task or appointment and the contacts field to connect the task/appointment to contacts. In Outlook 2007 the contacts field is gone and there is no way to enter a contact (or group of contacts) to a task.

Is there a way to add contacts to tasks/appointments in Outlook 2007?

Over the week, I’ve received various Meeting Invitations for meetings I do not intend to go to as these were multiple timeslots for basically the same gathering.

I’ve deleted all these invitations but upon checking my Calendar, I still see them there as Tentative meetings.

Why haven’t these been removed as well and how can I prevent this in the future?

I’ve imported holidays into my Calendar folder and I’ve also added birthdays and anniversaries to some of my closest contacts so that they’ll be added to my Calendar as well.

While I really like this feature, they do blend in with my regular appointments and meetings a bit too much for my taste.

Is it possible to highlight or color code these events so that they are different from the other Calendar entries?

Every now and then I receive an email message which requests me to send a Read Receipt. While I don't mind sending one, sometimes the timing is a bit unfortunate.

For instance, when I work late at night or quickly check my email during the holiday. Also, for one mailbox I'm only a delegate and I do not want to send out the Read Receipt for my manager.

Is there a method to easily see beforehand if an email holds a Read Receipt request or some way to send out the Read Receipt at a later time?

To my Calendar, I have added some Conditional Formatting rules to more easily see if I need to travel to a meeting or not (based on the Location field).

I noticed that this Conditional Formatting does work for some of my appointments/meetings but not all.

Why is this and how can I make this work?

I've received a message with a lot of people in the To and CC field. As we're all going to work on the same project, I want to create a Distribution List containing these people.

Is there an easy way I can create a Distribution List directly from the message or do I have to manually add everybody (I hope not…)?
