Hi, Here at work I often send emails that I want to stay on top of to ensure I get a response - requested information or action from another person not just a read receipt. In my old email client, I had a system that worked pretty well that allowed me to save a 2nd copy of an email was sending to a follow-up folder, not just the sent mail folder. When I looked in this follow-up folder, I'd see who the email was too, the subject and so forth, so it was easy to see who I was waiting on and the topic. In Outlook, emails can only reside in one folder, unless you send a copy to yourself and then move that copy to a new folder. Downside of that is that I wouldn't see who the email is to at a glance, just that it was from me and the topic.
I'm going thru some tutorials on categories and flags in Outlook. They seem pretty cool, but fairly visually based. I'm trying to use flags to add emails to my to-do list in Outlook for follow up. It's not great, but doable as it only displays the email subject line and I have to go back into sent mail to add the flag after it's sent. Wondering if any of you have found better options for this.
