Taming Outlook

The managing email page has had a screenshot of Outlook under the heading I can fix your email.1

While I've changed my mind about your email – I think email is just broken and probably beyond fixing, especially at work – a few people have asked exactly how I get Outlook looking like that.

I have good news and bad news.

Good news: I've documented it here, in a video.

Bad news: this is all going away, thanks to the "new Outlook". Microsoft are simplifying all of their products for reasons, and my first look at this new Outlook tells me that it basically doesn't have any features.

They've turned Outlook in to Hotmail, because they assume their customers are idiots.

So, with that said, here's the video.

Discuss this on the forum.
