TIPS - Take advantage of the built-in task list to clear out messages

Summary

Utilize the built-in to-do list so you don’t have to hold onto every message in your inbox

Body

Many of us use our inbox to keep track of messages that need us to do something like creating a document, signing a report, or generating a spreadsheet. Another one of the best tips and tricks for Outlook doesn’t involve the inbox itself, but rather utilizing the built-in to-do list so you don’t have to hold onto every message in your inbox.

To do this:

  1. Drag and drop the email on Outlook’s task list icon.
  2. Set a due date and add reminder messages if you want.
  3. Save the task.

Now, instead of cluttering your inbox with messages, you can simply look at your task list to see which things you need to accomplish on a given day.
