3 View (Tab): Use Conversations option: Outlook Web App groups all replies by default, with their original message. This creates a single conversation. In previous versions, responses appear as separate messages in your inbox, forcing you to scroll through all your mail to follow the conversation. Replies to s (and replies to those replies) are displayed in one place, making it easier to understand the context of a message -- or to follow the conversation. When you open one message in a conversation, each new message is stacked on top of the ones that arrived before it, so that the newest message is always the one you see first. To see the messages in a conversation, just click the small arrow on the left this will open that specific message. If you want to open all messages in a conversation, click the Actions dropdown on the right then click Expand All. Do the same when you want to Collapse All. A conversation will break off into a new thread if the subject line of the conversation is changed. NOTE: Use Conversations view is the default. If you'd like, you can turn off this setting (Back to a traditional view) so that replies aren't threaded into conversations, but appear as individual messages in your inbox. To do so, simply go to the View tab and uncheck the Use Conversations option.

4 Ignore Conversation: When you send a message to someone, and they reply, a Conversation results. In many Conversations, there may be many replies back and forth or even multiple people all replying to parts of the Conversation. You can keep unwanted conversations out of your Inbox by using the Ignore Conversation feature. Ignore Conversation removes all messages related to the conversation that you select, and moves future messages in the conversation directly to your Deleted Items folder. You can reverse this process and retrieve your conversation by going to your deleted items folder, clicking on the conversation you want and clicking on the red X where the tabs are and check, Cancel Ignore Conversation. It will then reappear in your in box as well as any future messages you receive pertaining to this conversation. Category by Colors: Categories help you organize items in your mailbox.
