Outlook Subject Line Editing
Michael Sippey highlights a nugget from the 43 Folders discussion list:
First, double click the e-mail (or hit enter) to open it in a separate window. Then put your cursor on the subject line and start typing. That’s it. You can add your own reference - date, project number, whatever - or change the subject line completely. Whatever is going to be meaningful to you. Use as many words you like. When you’re done, Ctrl+S to save.
Oh my. As Michael says, “Go nuts.” Very few of my co-workers are good at titling emails, and … this will make my life much, much easier. [Why? I'm the guy who keeps archives of all of his email, and people know that, so they ask me for help pulling up data when they need it.]
Mail Act-On
I think the true test of whether software is worth me writing about it is when it reaches the point of ubiquity. For me, that happens in the Mac world when I find myself sub-consciously keying the strokes I’d use on a Mac here at my office PC.
