Microsoft Outlook is a personal time and information management program that you can use for: sending and reading messages creating a to do list scheduling appointments tracking time spent on a project managing contacts recording notes Outlook allows you to organize and share information and communicate with others inside and outside of your organization. It provides many features that make it easy to use and which increase productivity, improve security, and simplify information-sharing. Some of these features are: To Do Bar Tasks integrated with Calendar Color categories Integrates your tasks, flagged messages, appointments, and calendar information in one convenient place, enabling you to quickly view priorities. Tasks can be viewed in the Tasks module, on the To Do Bar, and in the Daily Task List of the calendar.

2 Unit 1: Getting Connected Lesson 3 Search Attachment Preview Calendar overlays Sharing your calendar Enables you to find information quickly, no matter where the information is located in Outlook or how large or small your mailbox is. This feature allows you to view an attachment without opening it. From this view, you can overlay multiple calendars, such as work and personal for example, in order, to find time to meet without double-booking. This feature enables you to create a snapshot of your calendar and it to others or publish and share your calendar on Microsoft Office Online. Looking at the Outlook Screen When you open Outlook, your screen will look similar to the illustration shown: Contents Pane Search Vertical Split Bars Navigation Pane List Contents Pane 2 Search 3 To-Do Bar 1 2 Displays the contents of the selected item for the active module in the Navigation Pane. For instance, if Mail is active, the Contents Pane lists the messages for the selected folder; if the Contacts module is active, you will see a list of contacts in the Contents Pane. Allows you to enter search criteria and see the results display while you type. Can be dragged to show more or less of the pane on either side (in this case, folders or modules). All vertical panes on the Outlook screen are separated by vertical split bars. When you position the mouse pointer over a split bar, it becomes a split symbol that you can then click and drag to adjust the size of the desired panel. If you maximize the screen, Outlook adjusts the size and number of items you can see in either portion of the Navigation Pane. Allows you to move between different modules or components of Outlook. 5 Displays information for each module or folder. This is the main area of the Outlook screen. In the illustration shown, the Inbox is displayed, but this area could also display Sent Items, Deleted Items, or any other folder displayed in the Navigation Pane List 5 Reading Pane 6 Date Navigator 7 Vertical Split Bar 8 Appointments 9 Task List 10 Navigation Pane v CCI Learning Solutions Inc. 23
3 Reading Pane To-Do Bar Date Navigator Appointments Task List Displays the contents of any message highlighted in the List. By default, this is displayed on the right of the or tasks list when in Mail or Tasks mode, but it can be relocated to below the list. Displays the date navigator, appointments, and task list. Enables you to quickly switch to Calendar mode and view your schedule for the selected date. Displays a list of upcoming appointments. Displays a list of all your tasks arranged in a sort order you select. The illustration on the previous page shows the Outlook screen in its default configuration when first installed. Because many of the screen sections can be resized, minimized, or turned off, your screen may not look like the example shown. Outlook consists of several modules or components that enable you to perform a variety of tasks: Mail Compose, send, read, and manage messages. Calendar Schedule appointments, meetings, or events. Contacts Manage your contact list, much as you would in an address book. Tasks Track and prioritize your activities. Notes Enter brief notes, similar to sticky notes. Folders List Display all folders in the top portion of the Navigation Pane. Shortcuts Display any shortcuts Microsoft or you may set up for places you want to quick access to, e.g., Microsoft Online, the company s SharePoint. You can enter information into the individual modules or you can integrate one Outlook feature with another. For example, you can send an message directly to a contact while you are working in the Contacts module. This courseware focuses on the module of Outlook although Outlook provides a number of other features as seen here. Creating New Messages Sending an message is similar to the way you traditionally send a letter except that is prepared and sent electronically from your computer, and you need to have an account before you can send or receive . The service you select also determines how quickly or how often you may send or receive messages. Sending a message follows these steps: 1. Create a new mail message. 2. Address the message to the recipient. 3. Type the text for the subject, and then type the message, applying any formatting as required, such as bold text or indented paragraphs). If you need to someone a file, attach it to the mail message. 4. Use the spell checker and proof read your message to eliminate spelling or grammatical errors. 5. Send the message. Once the message is sent, it is temporarily stored in the Outbox until retrieved by the mail server for delivery to the recipient. This is handy when working offline as you can store all outgoing messages until you are ready to send them. HTML or HyperText Markup Language is the default format for new mail messages. Another mail format you can use is Rich Text; both formats enable you to view the message with any formatting used by the sender in the message. To change the mail format within a message, click the Format Text tab, and in the Format group, click the mail format to use. Plain text is another mail format but you cannot apply formatting. It does ensure that all recipients will be able to open and read these kinds of messages. Some programs only recognize the plain text format, and will discard or ignore the formatting used in Rich Text and HTML messages. To change the mail format for all messages for a particular mail format, select File, Options, Mail and then in Compose messages, choose the required mail format v CCI Learning Solutions Inc.

5 Use one of the following methods to select multiple contacts and then click the appropriate address button: To include everyone in a range of names, click the first name in the list, and then press and hold the key as you click the last name you want. Everyone from the first to the last name is selected. To select individual names distributed throughout the contact list, click the first person you want to receive the message, and then press and hold the key as you click the name of each individual contact you want to select. You need to select the names for each address field. Remember that names listed in the Cc field appear in this area of the message when received; names in the Bcc field do not appear anywhere in the message as seen by the recipients. Individuals who receive a Bcc message will see only their own name in the To field. Adding a Subject Line Be brief, but succinct, when entering text in the Subject field. Choose a few words that will sum up the purpose of the message for the recipient. Do not send a message without any text in this line to ensure the message is not blocked by the recipient s server as suspected junk mail. Formatting the Message Text The Message tab contains formatting features you can apply to text in the New Message pane. The Format Text tab contains the same basic formatting plus additional, commonly used Word program features. Formatting features can be applied either as you type or after the text is entered. If you choose to add the formatting after the text is typed, be sure to select the text first. Applying formatting features gives the message a more professional appearance and can be used to emphasize specific areas. Be careful about the features you add as the message text can become distracting. If the recipient uses the Plain Text mail format, they will not see your formatting. Proofing Your Message Outlook can check for misspelled words or words not commonly found in a dictionary, such as names, computer terms, medical terms, abbreviations, and so on. If changes to the message text are necessary, you can use tools such as the thesaurus. To activate this feature or other proofing tools, click the Review tab and then click the appropriate option in the Proofing group: Always try to maintain a professional manner in your messages, even with people you know very well.

When Outlook finishes sending and receiving all messages, new messages appear in the Contents Pane of the Outlook window. The Inbox folder also displays a number in brackets that indicates the total number of new messages received in the Folders list. Outlook shows the contents of a message in the Reading Pane. The envelope icon changes from to when you open or view a new message. Use the split bar between the Contents Pane and the Reading Pane to show more or less of each pane. You can also double-click a message to view its contents. Open a message to see the message in full, or to access options to reply to the message. Replying to a Message Once you have read a message, you can reply to the sender or to all recipients of the original message. When choosing the Reply or Reply All options, decide whether to reply only to the sender or to everyone else who received the original.

Also notice that Outlook automatically fills in the Address fields based on which Reply command is used. You can customize how the original message appears in a reply using the Mail Options in the File tab. Once you have replied to a message, Outlook displays next to the message in the Inbox to indicate that you replied to this message. The icon is the same regardless of whether you replied to the original sender or everyone addressed in the message. Notice the arrow in the icon points in the same direction as the command. 1 In the main Outlook screen, on the Send / Receive tab, in the Send & Receive group, click Send/Receive All Folders. 2 Double-click the message from Jane Woods to read the reply and then on the Message tab, in the Respond group, click Reply.

Forwarding a Message Use the Forward option to send the message to someone else for further action or reference. For example, a colleague working with you on a project needs to know when the next production meeting is as he would like to attend. You can then forward this message to your production manager to respond to the colleague with a copy to you for reference. To forward a message, use one of the following methods: On the Home tab, in the Respond group, click Forward, or press +, or if viewing the message, on the Message tab, in the Respond group, click Forward v CCI Learning Solutions Inc. 29

Attaching Files You can send a file to an recipient for reference, or to supplement information provided in the message. Most people appreciate receiving a file they can read at their convenience instead of having to read through a long message. The file can be any type, as long as you know the recipient has the appropriate software to open it. Be careful about the size of the file, as the larger it is, the longer it will take for the message to be sent or received v CCI Learning Solutions Inc.

Then select the message to Jeff Chou. 7 Press and then drag this message overtop your folder in the Folders list. There is now a copy of the original message sent to Jeff Chou in your folder. Sorting Messages One way to find a specific message can be to sort your messages according to different criteria in the Contents Pane. You can sort messages using one of the following methods: Click one of the column headings in the Contents Pane. Right-click the column field and then choose the appropriate sort option. When using a column heading as the sort criteria, the arrow indicates ascending order (A-Z or oldest message at the top down to the most recent at the bottom) and the arrow indicates descending order (Z-A or most recent at the top down to oldest). The normal sort order is descending so that the newest messages which are usually not read yet appear at the top of the list v CCI Learning Solutions Inc. 35
15 You can also sort your messages by arranging the fields in the Contents Pane using the View tab. 1 Ensure you are still viewing the messages in the Sent Items folder. 2 Click Received to change the sort order. 3 Click Received once more to change the sort order, this time to descending order or oldest message to newest. 4 Click From to change the sort to ascending order for the sender s name. 5 Click Received once more to set the sort order to ascending by date received. Finding Messages You can locate information quickly using the Search tool. Your search criteria can be specific or general; you can search by names, words, or phrases. To perform a search, click in the Search Inbox field and begin typing your search criteria. As you type, Outlook instantly displays all the results that match the characters entered. As you type more characters, more messages are filtered out and the list becomes smaller. In most cases, you only have to type a few letters to find the message. Outlook searches all parts of the message, including the subject, addresses, message body, and the name of any attachments (but not their contents). By default, the search is specific to the folder you are currently viewing, such as the Inbox. However, if the search criteria you enter does not produce any results, you can click the Try searching again in All Mail Items link. You can also use options in the Search Tools ribbon to set up the search criteria. To clear the results from the search, use one of the following: In the Search field, click (Clear Search), or press. You can also search for messages by using the Search Folders item in the Navigation Pane. Any items Outlook finds that match the criteria are virtual copies of the messages; this means if you delete the search folder, you do not delete the original messages. To create a new search folder, right-click Search Folders in the Navigation Pane and then click New Search Folder v CCI Learning Solutions Inc.

Outlook has found all messages you have from or sent by a Jane. The number of messages you see may vary depending on how many messages you may have sent to Jane Woods, or if the login name contains Jane. 4 In the Search Inbox field, click to clear the search results. Now try using the Search Folder feature. 5 In the Navigation Pane, right-click Search Folders and then click New Search Folder. 6 In the Reading Mail area, click Mail flagged for follow up and then click OK. Notice how Outlook now displays any messages that have been flagged; in this case, you should only have the one message that was flagged in an earlier exercise. 7 Right-click the For Follow Up folder in the Navigation Pane and then click Delete Folder. 8 Click Yes. The folder no longer appears. 9 Click the Customer Info folder to ensure the original message is still there. Deleting Messages When messages are no longer needed, delete them to keep your Outlook file small. This includes all folders in your Inbox group. All deleted messages are placed in the Deleted Items folder; you can set this folder to be emptied whenever you exit Outlook, or you can manually delete these messages from this folder. You can delete single or multiple messages. If you no longer need a folder and its contents, you can delete the folder to accomplish this task. Outlook will prompt you with a warning message asking you to confirm that you want to delete the folder and all its contents at one time. To delete items from a folder, select the item and then use one of the following methods: On the Home tab, in the Delete group, click Delete, or press + or, or drag the message to the Deleted Items folder v CCI Learning Solutions Inc. 37

The message should now be in this folder. Archiving Messages An option for keeping all your messages but also keeping your Outlook file small is archiving messages. Archived messages are moved from Outlook and stored in a separate file. If you want to refer to one of these messages later, you can click the archive file to display the folders and contents. To archive your messages any time using the manual method, click the File tab, with the Info category selected, click Cleanup Tools and then click Archive v CCI Learning Solutions Inc.
18 Unit 1: Getting Connected Lesson 3 Click the appropriate folder that you want Outlook to archive. For instance, you may want to archive your messages only, or create a backup copy of your entire Outlook data. Depending on the number of messages you have and how long you want to keep messages available, you may want to set the archive date to be six months or older so you have a recent history readily available. After setting options for the archiving process, the status bar displays to show the messages are being archived. On completion, a new folder called Archive Folders appears in the Navigation Pane. You can expand this folder to show the structure of the items you included in the original archive. You can also choose to close this folder from the Navigation Pane; in this scenario, you are only changing the display of the Navigation Pane as the original archive file is saved in the Outlook Files folder in the Documents folder.

You can use it instead of spending time trying to remember and type in someone s address. You can also set up groups or distribution lists for contacts you use most frequently v CCI Learning Solutions Inc. 39
19 To access the Contacts feature, click the Contacts group in the Outlook Navigation Pane. Adding a Contact You can enter as much information for the contact as you choose, including multiple phone or fax numbers, addresses, and IM (instant messaging) address.

For example, if you do not want to enter a home telephone number for a contact, but you do want to enter a second business phone number, you can click the drop-down arrow next to Home and then choose Business 2 from the pop-up list instead. If you click on a field name that appears as a button such as Full Name or Business another dialog box will open to allow you to enter this information as components such as first name and last name, or area code, local number and extension. When you have finished entering information into the new contact form, use one of the following methods to save the contact: To save this contact information only, on the Contact tab, in the Actions group, click Save & Close.

The group is now deleted from your list of contacts. Maintaining Outlook Every program is set up when you install it with default options for how your is handled. You can customize these options so that your program functions in the way that works best for you. Outlook provides a number of features to help you customize and maintain your program to be effective and efficient. Changing the Mail Format Outlook displays the contents of messages in a format that is easy to read. Depending on the setup, this could be HTML or Rich Text; both these formats display text formatting, such as italics and bold, as if you were viewing a word-processed document. Occasionally, you may receive a message in plain text; this generally happens when the mail server cannot recognize the formatting used in the original message and converts it to plain text. You can control the mail format for all new messages by changing the default options in File, Options, and then, in the Mail category, choose what you want from the Compose messages area. To change the mail format while creating a message, click in the message body area; then, on the Format Text tab, in the Format group, click the mail format you want to use. However, this format change will only affect the current message. Tracking Options You can set Outlook to send you notices when a message is received or read by others. These can be set for all messages you send, or only individual ones v CCI Learning Solutions Inc. 43
23 To set the receipts to occur for every message you send, select File, Options, and in the Mail category, click the items you want from the Tracking area. To set the receipts to occur for a message, in the new message window on the Options tab, in the Tracking group, select the appropriate tracking option to use. Note that the recipient s system may not have the ability to track messages, and therefore may not send you these notices even though you have turned these features on. Using Signatures A signature is a piece of text that automatically appears in your messages whenever you create a new message. This saves having to enter your name and information or a product slogan each time you send a message. You can create as many signatures as required, but only one can be set up as a default. To create a signature, select File, Options, and in the Mail category, in the Compose messages area, click Signatures. Click New, enter a name for the signature and click OK. You can then enter the text for the signature and format it as required. You can enter as many signatures as you need at once, or you can add new signatures as you need them for business or personal use, or perhaps for a volunteer role. You can set up a signature to be the default one that appears in every message, or choose different signatures for v CCI Learning Solutions Inc.
24 Unit 1: Getting Connected Lesson 3 replies and forwards. To choose a different signature in a new message, on the Message tab, in the Include group, click the arrow for Signature and then click the appropriate signature. Sending Out-of-Office Notices As a business practice and courtesy, if you plan on being away from the office, send a message in advance to those you deal with regularly to inform them of this. Even if you plan to retrieve your messages during this time, inform people of your absence and offer them the name of a colleague who can assist them. Out-of-office notices should provide details regarding the dates you will be away and who will be handling your work during your absence. Try to send the notice at least two days prior to your departure. You can also set up your messages to automatically be forwarded to someone else to handle during your absence. Sending an away notice to personal contacts is at your discretion. Some programs and mail servers provide the option to send an out-of-office response automatically to anyone who sends you an during this time. You set up the option from your system, and the mail server automatically generates a response that it sends out every time it detects a new message arriving in your Inbox. The main downside to this is that the response will be sent regardless of who the sender is; it could be a company that generates junk or spam mail and your response could tell them that your address is valid. Staying Up to Date If you have Outlook installed on a computer and a PDA, you can stay up to date with all messages on both computer devices using a synchronization feature available with Outlook. Many newer computing devices enable you to synchronize information from different modules in Outlook to the device, such as on an iphone or a Blackberry. How this is set up varies with the computing device. Blocking Messages Use the Junk feature to reduce the number of junk messages you receive. This is similar to the Block feature available with telephone systems. To block messages from an address, on the Home tab, in the Delete group, select Junk, Junk Options. You can specify addresses to be blocked. Once you have set up items on the Blocked Senders tab, you can add or remove items using the Edit or Remove buttons. Backing Up Your Items Outlook saves all your information in a data file. As this file grows in size, this database of information can grow significantly and you may begin to encounter problems with it. This is a good time to look at different ways to reduce the possibility of losing your data in Outlook. One option is to compact the data file; this is similar to pushing all the file folders and their contents to the back of a filing cabinet drawer to try and release space for more items. This will only work for a limited amount of time before you will need to look at an alternative way to access your data. Another option is to make a backup copy of the data file. While this requires a bit more time, the backup copy can become invaluable if anything should happen to your computer or if you need to find an older message v CCI Learning Solutions Inc. 45
25 If the data files are quite large, consider archiving these files on a CD or other external storage media at set intervals, and then delete unnecessary items from the program to reduce the size of the data file. Regardless of which method you use, make copies of your data file. This is crucial if a backup procedure is not performed on your system (or network) on a regular basis, or if you are running low of space on your computer. Security Issues is an efficient, fast, and inexpensive medium for communicating text, data files, and other information. It can be easy to forget about the privacy and security of messages that you send by , but it s important to remember that there are many ways for individuals with malicious intent to hack into mail servers or intercept messages during transmission. Adding a digital signature to your outgoing messages proves to the recipient that you were the originator and that the message was not tampered with during transmission. To digitally sign a message, you must have a digital ID certificate. Outlook enables you to sign individual messages or all messages digitally. In a new message, on the Message tab in the Tags group, click the Message: Options Dialog box launcher, and then click Security Settings. Summary In this lesson, you used Microsoft Outlook to send and receive messages, as well as enter contacts. You should now be familiar with: what Microsoft Outlook is recognize elements on the screen how to send and receive messages how to reply or forward a message how to send an attachment with a message Review Questions work with attachments sort and manage your messages search for messages work with the address book understand mail maintenance options 1.
