To create a new rule on outlook, you first want to press on manage created rules.

From this point forward, you can create a new rule based on many different categories. Such as move any emails from exampleemail@gmail.com to junk

Your email service will automatically determine what emails are junk and they will be filtered into your junk folder, but you may receive an email from a trusted person and you 100% know that the email they are sending is safe.

You can add this sender to the safe list and all emails they send will go to your inbox automatically.

You can follow up on an email conversation by either pressing the little icon on the email, the little red flag and by default, this will flag the email for completion by the end of the day. 

Use the follow-up tag on the home tab to specify what day you want to make this email as completed by.

Within Outlook, you can specify many different view settings. You can decide if you want to display lines of an email through 'View' and under 'Message Preview'.

By default, this is set to 1 line but you can have a maximum of 3 lines that can be shown or alternatively, you can disable message preview by selecting 'Off'

If you are away from your emails for a period of time but need to send an email to someone, you can specify within outlook to delay the email until a certain time has been reached.

When you create a new email, go to the options tab and select 'Delay Delivery'. From here, you can specify how long you want the email to be delayed till. However, you must keep your computer switched on with outlook running to keep the delay request in effect.

Search through the public folder until you are met with the desired calendar, simply right click and add the folder to your favourites.

Have you ever wanted to double check that the recipient of the email your sending has received your email and has successfully read it? Within Outlook, you can request a receipt for message delivery and for when they read the email.

However, the recipient of the email can still decline your request and you wouldn't know if they have read the email.
