Editor's Notes

  • #32: File->Options area for Outlook click on Mail then scroll down to Send Messages. Then make sure the checkbox is selected for “Warm me when I send a message that may be missing an attachment”. When you use the words in the body of the message like “attached, attachment, enclosed” and there isn’t an attachment, a dialog box will appear “You may have forgotten to attach a file” and you have the choice if you want to send or not.
  • #33: Use the Reply with IM to the right side of the Respond box. Skype will provide a link to bring up the original email that you selected to start the chat message
  • #42: A little nuance when sending the decline and do not send a response. The organizer has no information if you have declined or not in the invites status…and they will not get an email stating you have declined the meeting. It works similarly for the attendee as it won’t show on your calendar and it acts like you were never invited. Be care when sending a Do not send a response.
