Tips

Instead of entering the names of the contact's manager and assistant, it's usually better to create separate contact items for those people and associate those items with the current one (using Contacts on the General tab). By doing so, you can save other information about the manager and assistant, such as their e-mail addresses.

Don't assume the people to whom you send e-mail messages will be able to receive your messages with all the formatting you create, nor that they will be able to open attachments to your messages. In some cases, you might have to send sample messages to ascertain whether the e-mail programs recipients use are capable of receiving what you send.

Using a stationery increases the size of your messages, so they take longer to send and receive. Most people prefer not to receive business messages based on a stationery. I recommend that you use stationeries only for personal messages to your friends.

If you have sufficient system resources, it's a good idea to leave Outlook running while you work with other applications. By doing so, you'll always see Outlook's reminders at the time they're scheduled to appear. If Outlook isn't running, reminders don't appear until you start Outlook. You'll also have Outlook immediately available for making quick notes.
