TODAY'S eTIP(TM): Setting Your Outlook Options
You can control the appearance of the Outlook 2000 messages that
you forward, as well as your replies. If all your e-mail stays in
your office among other Microsoft Office users, you can make your
text look pretty incredible. Jazz up your mail by adding
graphics, wild-looking fonts, or special effects such as blinking
text.
However, if you're sending mail to poor ol' Internet users or to
people on an online service such as CompuServe, these special
effects may impede the mail delivery, so you're better off
keeping your messages visually plain and simple.
To set your options:
1. Choose Tools, Options.
The Options dialog box appears.
2. Click the E-mail Options button.
The E-mail Options dialog box appears.
3. Click the scroll-down button (triangle) at the right
end of the When Replying to a Message box.
A menu of options drops down. When Outlook is first
installed, Include and Indent Original Message Text is the
default option. The diagram to the right of the scroll-down
menu illustrates how the message will be laid out when you
choose each option.
4. Choose the style that you prefer to use for replies.
The little diagram to the right of the menu changes when you
make a choice to show you what your choice will look like.
If you don't like the choice that you've made, try another
and see how it looks in the diagram.
5. Click the triangle at the right end of the When
Forwarding a Message box.
The When Forwarding a Message box has one choice fewer than
the When Replying to a Message box does, but the two menus
work the same way, and they both have that little diagram of
the page layout off to the right.
6. Choose the style that you prefer to use for forwarding
messages.
Just pick one; you can always change it.
7. Click OK.
You can do all sorts of fancy, exciting, and even useful tricks
with e-mail by taking advantage of Outlook's options. If the
advanced options seem confusing, you can easily ignore them. Just
click Reply and type your answer.
