How to enter a hyperlink containing a space into an E-mail
When you enter text into an e-mail, Outlook recognizes certain values, such as Web and UNC addresses (such
as a network resource), and automatically makes them hyperlinks. However, after you enter a space, Outlook
stops creating the hyperlink because it has no way of knowing whether you've finished the address and are
now typing another word or whether the address contains spaces.
How to create and apply a Signature in Outlook for Microsoft 365 (Desktop)
If you frequently sign your messages using not only your name, but also additional information such as your
job title and contact information, you'll appreciate Outlook's Signature feature. When enabled, it appends
text of your choice to the end of every message that create and/or reply to.
Auto-Reply for all messages without subject
This rule will be useful if you receive a lot of messages (for example, reports) from your colleagues and
use rules to copy or move correspondence to the specific folders (like Rule
to copy all correspondence about some subject to the specific folder or Rule
to move all correspondence about some subject to the specific folder). Unfortunately those rules
wouldn't work for messages with empty subject, but you still can create a rule to send an Auto-Reply if the
message don't have a subject.
How to create a contact group in Outlook
If you regularly send e-mails to the group of people, you can create a Contact Group and send them an
e-mail with just a few clicks.
How to change the default Address Book
This option controls which address book you see when you open the Address Book (via clicking
Ctrl+Shift+B) and when you click the To, Cc, or Bcc buttons when composing
e-mails.
Creating Your Own Menu
Creating custom menus in Outlook is a funny feature you can use to create groups of the options that you use
most often, and then plug them into the menu you name and use yourself.
Using templates to facilitate more versatile E-mail Distribution
If you want to construct a more complicated distribution list, with some recipients on the To field,
some recipients on the Cc field, and yet more recipients on the Bcc field, you have to use a
message template where you explicitly assign recipients to each field.
Attaching Business Cards to all outgoing messages
In some situation you may want to send your vCard in every message. This lets recipients enter the
information in their address book quickly and without errors.
Modifying a default view
Any of Outlook's default views can be modified to suit your needs. You can customize the fields displayed,
sorting, grouping, filtering, fonts, and other formatting options.
Conditional formatting in Outlook
Usually Outlook users are using folders to organize messages, but you can also use colors. For example, you
might apply a special color to all messages from a particular person. You can then see at a glance which
messages are from that person.
