1/21
INTRODUCTION:
Outlook Express is a free e-mail program that rivals the very best email clients available. It
supports POP, IMAP and now HTTP mail and now you can send and receive e-mail messagesfrom all your work and personal accounts-even Web-based e-mail accounts such as MSN
Hotmail-without leaving Outlook. Also included are tools for importing existing mail settings,
address book entries, and e-mail messages from Netscape, Eudora, Microsoft Exchange Server,
the Windows Inbox, and Microsoft Outlook. Requires Internet Explorer to be installed first.
Outlook Express is the easy way to send e-mail and participate in Internet newsgroups. Even if
you've never sent e-mail before, Outlook Express makes it simple by including a setup wizard to
help you get started. If you're switching from another e-mail program, the import function lets
you transfer your address book and messages quickly and easily. Outlook includes strong
features for managing contacts, calendar, and to-do lists. Its excellent address book has a
surprising number of fields. The personal information manager lets you create custom contact
views and click on contacts in the address book to see meetings you've scheduled with them.
Outlook has exceptionally powerful searching features and offers an easy-to-use, form-based
approach to filter creation. Wizards make Outlook the easiest program in this roundup for adding
e-mail accounts. Welcome extras include stationery and the ability to insert voting buttons in
mail.
The exact features available in Outlook vary according to whether you use it with POP and
IMAP accounts or with a Microsoft Exchange server. With Exchange, you can schedule group
meetings, and by default, your e-mail will be kept on the server (as with IMAP accounts).
OutLook Security:
The security woes of Outlook, however, are legion, and it's the e-mail software most worm and
virus writers target. Microsoft's infuriating response: Outlook simply blocks certain attachments.
If someone sends you an EXE file, the newest versions of Outlook won't let it through, and
-

without mucking around in the Windows Registry, there's nothing you can do about it.
To download Outlook Express, you must first download a small setup file to your hard disk.
Once downloaded, just run the file and the download and install process will begin. The Outlook
Express download size should be around 1.5 Megabytes.
Microsoft Outlook makes it easier to manage your e-mail messages, contacts, tasks, and
appointments from one place. Access Web-based e-mail accounts. Send instant messages.
Schedule meetings. Whatever your communication needs, Outlook lets you work smarter and
faster.
Outlook takes the guesswork out of setting up meetings and coordinating schedules. New
features make it easy to manage and view your personal and team schedules, so you spend less
time planning and more time preparing.
Outlook can help you manage your time and information more effectively, while making it easier
to create and share information with others.
Lets the Game Begin
Features of OutLook
AutoComplete Addressing
As a user enters an e-mail address, Outlook automatically recognizes it and completes the name
based on previously sent e-mail to the recipient. This enables users to quickly send e-mail to
others without spending time searching for e-mail addresses.
Type in the e-mail of someone you have previously sent e-mail to and Outlook automatically
completes the address.

Outlook Hotmail Support
Users can now easily access e-mail from their Hotmail account (or other Internet mail providers)
directly from within Outlook. This enables users to quickly and easily send mail out from any of
their e-mail accounts without leaving their Outlook application.
Select E-mail Accounts from the Tools menu.
Select Add a New E-mail Account.
Select HTTP.
Add your Hotmail account or any other HTTP mail account that supports the DAV protocol.
Send (E-mail Account Selection)
Users with multiple e-mail accounts (such as a Hotmail account and an account on Exchange)
can choose on a per message basis what account to use to send their message.
When the user chooses an account, an information bar shows which account is used to send the
mail. Explicit rules are built in to determine which account should be used as the default (e.g.,
when replying to a message, the account is used that the message was originally sent to) or users
can assign a default account for Outlook to use.
Set up multiple e-mail accounts (e.g., Hotmail and Exchange) from E-mail accounts under the
Tools Menu.
Create a new e-mail message. Select the Account drop-down menu (next to the Send button) to
choose which account to use.
Wordmail
-
8/2/2019 Outlook Tutorial
4/21
The newest version of Outlook makes significant improvements to Wordmail (which is now the
default e-mail editor) in reliability, message size, and feature set. More specifically, when using
HTML mail format, Wordmail removes document specific tags that were previously included so
that users could edit it back in Word.
This reduces the overall size of the e-mail message. Wordmail also enables users to take
advantage of a variety of new Word enhancements.
Make sure Word is your default e-mail editor by selecting Options from the Tools Menu. On the
Mail Format tab, make sure the "Use Microsoft Word to edit e-mail messages" check box is
selected.
Smart Tags in Wordmail
With Word as the default e-mail editor, users can take advantage of the Smart Tags that are
available in Word (including AutoCorrect, Paste Options, Address, Name, Date, or customizable
Smart Tags). Smart Tags are context-sensitive buttons that give users the options and
information they need at the time they need them.
Example 1: Paste an Excel spreadsheet into the mail to access the Paste Options Smart
Tag. Example 2: Type in a name of a contact from Outlook to access the Name Smart Tag.
Message Format in Wordmail
Users can easily change between different mail formats on the fly and on a per message basis. By
giving users the option to switch between HTML, rich text, or plain text, they can more easily
format their message so that the recipient can have the best viewing experience.
Create a new mail message using Word as your default e-mail editor. From the message format
drop-down menu, select the format you want.

Mailbox Cleanup
Users can quickly view the size of their mailbox, search for files by size or by age, and then
delete, move, or archive those files to clear up space. Exchange users can also automatically be
notified when they are approaching their mailbox size limit and choose from the above options
for cleaning up their mailbox. From the Tools menu, select Mailbox Cleanup.
Text Auto Cleanup
Outlook can now automatically clean up plain text e-mail formatting that often contains extra
line breaks that make the message difficult to read.
Outlook automatically removes the extra line breaks (an option exists to turn this off as well)
when a user opens an e-mail message, previews the message in the preview pane, or prints the
message so that it is easier to read. Automatically takes place when a plain text e-mail message is
opened.
Find
Users can more easily find important messages, appointments, or tasks with the improved Find
bar that enables users to access features previously available only with Advanced Find. For
example, users can specify which folders they want to search for on their computer or on a
network. Furthermore, both Find and Advance Find enable users to stop a search that's in
progress and restart where it left off.
From the Standard Toolbar, select the Find button. Preview Pane The preview pane enables users
to follow a hyperlink, respond to meeting requests, and display properties of an e-mail address
without requiring the user to open the message. Turn Preview Pane on by selecting Preview Panefrom the View menu.
LDAP Address Book
-
8/2/2019 Outlook Tutorial
6/21
The LDAP address book is more sophisticated with advanced searching and faster responses to
lookups:
An LDAP directory now has many of the same search features as found with the Exchange
Global Address List, along with entry details.
Paged Results Support: allows crolling through directory entries from servers returning Paged
Results.
Support for Virtual List (VLV): entries can be browsed as easily as with the Exchange Global
Address List.
Select an LDAP directory (where available) in the "Show Names From the:" drop-down menu in
the Address Book dialog box.
In the address book dialog box, select Find from the Tools menu to apply the advanced searching
options.
Double-click an entry in the LDAP directory for details.
Contact Address Book (CAB)
The Contact Address Book makes use of the Contact's "Display Name." With this column, you
can look up contact entries more efficiently, especially with multiple entries for the same contact
name. When using the new Local Web Storage File, this CAB has full Unicode support. Select
Address Book from the Tools menu. Drop-down "Show Names From the" menu and select
Contacts. Notice that Display Name has been added as a field.
Synchroniza-tion Improvements
Outlook is now easier to set up for use in an offline mode with a single command, and all
protocols (IMAP, POP, MAPI) can be synchronized at once. Different accounts can also be
synchronized in different ways, depending on whether users are offline or online. Users can also
choose which information from the mail (the header only or the entire email) is synchronized.
-
8/2/2019 Outlook Tutorial
7/21
And, a new Progress Reporting feature notifies the user how long the synchronization process
takes. The user can choose to selectively cancel different account synchronization if wanted.
From the Tools menu, select Send/Receive Settings. Select the desired action. Exchange Server
Connection Improvements
The Outlook version 2002 connection to Exchange is more efficient, so users can download their
mail faster. This is possible due to a decreased number of "round trips" that the data must go
through, as well as less data that is being transferred over the connection than with previous
versions of Outlook. Furthermore, the connection to the directory is also more resilient, meaning
that if the connection to the Global Catalog server is disrupted for any reason, Outlook asks for a
referral to another directory server and connects to that server seamlessly.
Outlook Virus Enhancements
Outlook now helps users and organizations safeguard against malicious viruses by: Blocking e-
mail attachments associated with unsafe files.
Preventing programs from gaining programmatic access to a user's address book or sending mail
on the user's behalf. Users are notified and given the option of continuing with the action.
This prevents propagation and spreading of the virus to other users. Giving administrators
options to customize the above settings to meet the security needs of their organization.
Functionality automatically takes place.
Document Recovery
Wordmail gives users the option of saving their current files at the time an error occurs in the
application. As a result, users spend less time recreating their mail messages and spend more
time working. You can only access this if an error occurs. Choose to recover the document and
click close. Open the recovered document from the document recovery pane. Integrated
Corporate/Workgroup and Internet Mail Only Modes.
-
8/2/2019 Outlook Tutorial
8/21
Outlook is no longer divided into separate Internet and Exchange modes. The new E-mail
Accounts wizard enables you to create several e-mail account types (Exchange, POP3, IMAP,
HTTP, LDAP, MS Mail, etc.) in one profile. Multiple profiles are still supported. You can
choose the account you want to send and receive messages for. Outlook is no longer divided into
separate Internet and Exchange modes.
OutLook Security
Protect Your Inbox from E-Mail-borne Viruses
If you use Microsoft Outlook, you can protect yourself from the kinds of e-mail virus or worm
attacks that make headlines by unleashing damaging code and disrupting business operations.The Outlook E-Mail Security Update can block access to certain file types that could spread
dangerous code, whether you use Outlook 2000 or Outlook 98. If you use Outlook version 2002,
you already have this type of protection.
If you don't know which version of Outlook you have, open the Help menu in Outlook and click
About Microsoft Outlook; you will see the version number in the first line of text in the dialog

How to Maintain Your OutLook Express
Store Folders
Automatic Maintenance (background compaction)
OE has an automatic maintenance feature that is enabled by default. It is designed to wait until
-
8/2/2019 Outlook Tutorial
10/21
OE has been idle for several minutes, and then begin to compact your mail and news folders in
the background. The options to control this are found under Tools| Options| Maintenance.
Those options are for newsgroup files, by the way, and not for mail folders. Also, the option to
"delete messages after xx days" refers only to message bodies, not to message headers. OE will
delete old news headers only when they are removed from the server. However, I cannot
recommend using this automatic tool. If your computer should crash, or your phone line drop, or
your power supply be interrupted while OE is busily compacting files, the result can be truly
ugly.
The entire message store can become corrupt, meaning you could lose all your mail messages.
Furthermore, many people notice a serious drop in their computer's performance each time thebackground compaction begins.
I strongly suggest you turn this feature off right now by removing the check mark for "Compact
messages in the background." Now you need to give some thought as to how you will manage
your files manually. This is not hard to do, but it is easy to forget, and as your files grow in size
you will see OE gradually begin to slow down.
So whenever you notice a performance hit, it's definitely time to clean up your store. But it'ssafer to make file maintenance a regular event. Once a week or so will keep OE in prime
condition.
Compact Your OE Folders
Like most database programs, OE does not actually remove an item from a *.dbx file when you
delete a message. Instead it merely tags the item for removal at a later time, mainly when you
next compact your folders.
Until then, the deleted message is till occupying disk space, which can cause OE to perform
more slowly when accessing the *.dbx file. To recover disk space and keep your files as small as
possible, you need to compact your folders regularly.
-
8/2/2019 Outlook Tutorial
11/21
In the OE Folder list (View| Layout| Folder List), click Outlook Express so that no mail or news
folder is open. Now click File| Work Offline so that no new messages will be arriving. Finally,
click File| Folder| Compact All Folders.
This process can take several minutes and you should not attempt to use your computer until it is
finished. If an error occurs, such as "cannot compact, folder in use", just close OE, wait a second
or two, then re-open OE and begin the process again. This will compact not only your news
folders, but also all of your mail folders and the all-important Folders.dbx.
To compact only news folders, click Tools| Options| Maintenance| Clean up Now, then click
Compact. To compact a single mail folder, just click once on the folder to select it, and then clickFile| Folder| Compact.
To compact a single newsgroup folder, right-click on the newsgroup, then click Properties| Local
File| Compact
Clean Up Your OE News Folders
To clean up your news folders, click Tools| Options| Maintenance| Clean Up Now. There youwill see 4 buttons along with a brief description of their functions.
You can choose to apply any of these actions to all local folders, meaning Hotmail, IMAP and
newsgroup folders, by leaving the default selection for "Local file(s) for: Outlook Express".
To clean up all groups on an account, click the Browse button and select the account. To select
just one group, Browse to that group (although you can get to this much faster in that case simply
by right-clicking the newsgroup in the Folder list and selecting Properties| Local Files). If you
apply Remove, Delete or Reset, it is important that you also apply Compact to all folders that
you have cleaned up.
You might notice that there is one very important feature missing here. There is no button to
delete only headers and messages that are older than a specified number of days, or only those
headers and messages marked as Read or Ignored.
-
8/2/2019 Outlook Tutorial
12/21
This is not terribly troublesome on servers with a short retention time where messages are
removed from the server after just a few days. But on servers with long retention times, like the
90 days typical of newsgroups on the Microsoft public news server, the buildup of old headers
with or without message bodies can slow OE to a crawl, and in extreme cases, even crash the
computer.
Outlook Express More Efficiently with
Shortcuts
An Email Session Cut Short
Outlook Express comes with pretty (or, at least: simple, elegant) button bars and menus. These
make it relatively simple to handle your email with the mouse. As soon as you are about to write
a message, however, using the mouse turns into a frustrating (for you) and funny (for your
coworkers) endeavor. So why not keep your fingers at the keyboard while dealing with your
daily dose of email and save both some time and some calories
Checking Mail
Let us begin by starting Outlook Express. Having done that, you can give your mouse some
cheese so it doesn't get bored. First, we want to see if we have new mail. In OE's main window
we type CTRL-M; this means to hold down the key labeled "Ctrl" while pressing "m". Outlook
Express checks our email accounts for new mail and -- provided we have some -- sends us to the
latest message
Browsing and Deleting
This message is not particularly interesting. Let's switch to the previous one by pressing CTRL-
-
8/2/2019 Outlook Tutorial
13/21
. Another very handy combination takes
us to the next unread email: CTRL-U. Since there is little point in keeping uninteresting
message, let's delete them. Yes, you can drag them to the dustbin and drop them there; or select
select "Delete" from the context menu; or click on that red cross in the button bar.
The fastest way to get rid of unwanted mail is to press either DEL or CTRL-D (you may find the
latter more comfortable although it requires you to press two keys instead of one).
Shortcut Key Tables
These were just some of the shortcuts available in Outlook Express. Below you find some more
complete lists. Some of the described shortcuts are not in the help file, BTW
Shortcut Function
Ctrl-O Open the message in its own window
Ctrl-Shift-E Create a new folder
Ctrl-N Create a new message
Ctrl-P Print the selected messages
Ctrl-C Copy the selected text or the whole message body if
there is no selection
Ctrl-A Depending on the focus, mark all messages (if the
focus is on the message list) or all text within a
message (if the focus is on the preview pane)
Ctrl-Shift-F Search for a message (opens the message search
dialog)
Shift-F3 Search for a message in this folder only
F3 Continue search

Address books: From Microsoft products and other products, such as Netscape Communicator
and Eudora. You can also import address book data that uses the comma separated values (CSV)
format.
Messages from other e-mail programs: Including Netscape and Eudora. You can also import
messages from many Microsoft products, such as Outlook or older versions of Outlook Express.
E-mail account settings: From an existing e-mail account. When you import your e-mail account
settings, your Outlook Express account will have many, if not all, of the customization andinformation details from your previous account.
Newsgroup account settings: From an existing e-mail account. When you import your
newsgroup account settings into Outlook Express, your subscription records and other data, such
as which messages you've seen, are placed into your Outlook Express newsgroup account. You
can then up reading your newsgroups.

Backing up your Microsoft Outlook Filesand Settings
There are three basic approaches to backing up your Outlook Express files and settings.
The Simple Backup is only for your email folders and mail and news accounts settings, and it is
indeed pretty simple.
The Complete, or Clone, Backup is for everything in your OE Identity, including email folders,
news folders, message rules, blocked senders, even your current view settings. It is very complex
to describe, but takes about 2-5 minutes to complete in practice.
The Partial Backup is for groups of messages, message rules only, blocked senders, etc.
The Simple but Limited Backup
By using this method, you will be able to restore all your mail folders, all y our mail and news
accounts settings, and your address book for one Identity. You will lose all your subscribed
newsgroups, all message rules, all Block Senders entries, all custom views and all custom
toolbars. If you use multiple Identities, you must repeat this process for each Identity, or else use
the Complete Backup for Advanced Users.
1. Backup your OE mail and news accounts.
Click Tools| Accounts, select the account to backup, and then click the Export button. This will
store the account's settings in a *.iaf file at the location you specify. You can later import any
*.iaf file by clicking the Import button. Your account password is stored in encrypted form in the
*.iaf file. Be sure to export all mail and news accounts, and any user-created LDAP accounts you
might have created. The default LDAP accounts will always be created fresh when you install or
-
8/2/2019 Outlook Tutorial
18/21
upgrade OE.
2. Backup your address book.
Open the Address Book and click Help| About Address Book to see the full path to the current
*.wab file used by all your Identities. Find that file in Windows Explorer and copy it to your
backup media. You can later import the backup by opening OE and clicking File| Import|
Address Book.
I recommend that you create an emergency backup of the Address Book as well. Open the
Address Book by double-clicking the *.wab file. Click File| Export| Other Address Book, and
then click on Text File (Comma Separated Values). Click the Export button, specify a destinationfolder, and click Next. Select all the fields shown for a complete backup, then click Finish
The resulting *.csv file can later be imported using File| Import| Other Address Book| Text File
(Comma Separated Values).
Note: If you do not see a path to a *.wab, then you have set OE to share the Contacts folder in
Outlook98 or Outlook2000, and you should consult the Outlook Help file for instructions on
backing up your entire Outlook *.pst file.
3 Backup your mail folders.
In OE, click Tools| Options| Maintenance| Store folder to see the path to the folder currently
being used for your message store. Open Windows Explorer and navigate to the Store. Copy the
Folders.dbx file and all .dbx files to your backup media. It is not necessary to copy any .dbx file
because OE will not import newsgroup messages, only messages in mail folders.
You must include Folders.dbx in your backup or you will be unable to import the mail folders!
To restore your mail folders, open OE and click File| Import| Messages| OE5 (or OE6 if OE5 is
not listed)| Message store directory, then browse to the folder containing your old messages. Do
not copy the backup files into the current OE message store or the import will fail. If you saved
your backup on a CD or a networked drive, you will need to copy the backup to your hard disk
and verify that none of the *.dbx files are marked as "read only", or the import will fail

The complete BackUp (Clone Your Identity for Advanced Users)
Here you will read how to backup and restore all items needed to make a perfect clone of your
existing configuration. You can use this process for backup purposes, or when upgrading to a
new computer, or to clone your configuration on another computer, or to allow multi-boot
systems to have a single shared OE Identity.
Don't let the length of these instructions put you off trying this method. In practice the entire
process takes no more than 5 minutes. In all honesty, you can download shareware utilities that
will do exactly what this procedure does, but they will cost you money and almost the same
amount of time.
