My work involves updating a spreadsheet with new information and then send out this updated spreadsheet directly to several customers. At the end of the week, I also have to send them the latest report.

The way I do this now is by using a draft message which is pre-addressed already. Once I’m done updating, I open a copy of this draft, add the latest spreadsheet as an attachment and send it out.

For the report I do something similar and have a recurring task reminder set at the end of the week to remind me to send it out.

Since this is a very large part of my work (I update multiple spreadsheets and send out multiple reports), the Outlook process is rather cumbersome. Is there any way I can skip a few steps in this process?

What are the sending limits for Windows Live Hotmail accounts?

I want to send a message that that contains an index which people can click on. So they can click on a topic and it will directly jump to that section within the email.

How can I do this?

I’m using Notes a lot and usually also have quite long notes. There seems to be no scrolling bar for a Note window and I often find myself resizing the note or walk through it with my cursor keys.

Is there a way to enable the scrollbar or any other way to read long notes more easily?

Is there a way to use Windows Desktop Search only for Outlook and not use the rest of the searching capabilities?

I find it usefull for Outlook but have no need to index the rest of my data on my machine.

I’m getting the New Mail Desktop Alert in the middle of my screen.

How can I put it back to the bottom right (or another location of choice)?

I have a few personal folders/data files, and 1 of it is password-protected.

Back in Outlook 2003, I’m only prompted for the password if I actually accessed the folder. Now in 2007/2010, the pop-up comes up as soon as I start up Outlook.

How do I stop this from happening?

Since recently my calendar shows (2) behind it in blue.

Did I somehow copy my calendar? I cannot rename it back either.

I got a new PC with Outlook 2010 on it. I copied the pst-file from my old machine running Outlook 2003 to the new one but now I’m missing all my categories in Outlook.

How do I get them to into Outlook 2010?
