Outlook 07: delete junk without reading? and sort inbox by "to"?1) Delete messages without having to highlight them. I've tried
flagging them then setting a rule to delete messages flagged with that colour but no resut. Mozilla mail has a column where you can click the junk mail status icon and the message is automatically sent to trash. 2) Include a column to indicate the recipient of a message (I cc all outgoing email to myself and would find it useful to have the "to" column in my inbox instead of in sent mail, which I do not use. Thanks in advance for help getting these two queries sorted. Jo Boppy <therealbo***@yahoo.com> wrote:

With Seamonkey, you actually don't have to select the message - just clicking on the junk icon deletes it and presumably junk senders with tracking systems don't see it as being read. As you are obviously knowledgable about Outlook, may I bother you with another query? How can I get my signature to be automatically inserted when initiating mail send from outside Outlook? Eg if I am in another application or even an Explorer window, when I right click and select "send to", the sig is not attached and I have to insert it manually. There used to be a way to fix this in Office 03 but I don't know the method in 07. Thanks in advance Jo On Nov 24, 12:00 pm, Boppy <therealbo***@yahoo.com> wrote:

Now my inbox is called Recovered Folder 8082 and there is no option to rename it. To get it named "inbox" again, is copying it and renaming the new folder the only option? I thought I'd best check before doing this in case there are further reaching issues for directing new mail. Boppy <therealbo***@yahoo.com> wrote:

I also think you lose the ability to select the message format. -- Brian Tillman [MVP-Outlook]  |
