Objectifs :
This document aims to provide a comprehensive overview of how to effectively sort and filter emails in the Outlook Web App, enhancing user productivity and email management.
Chapitres :
-
Introduction to Email Management in Outlook
Managing a high volume of emails can be challenging. The Outlook Web App offers various tools to help users sort and filter their inbox efficiently. This guide will explore the features available for organizing emails, focusing on the Focused Inbox, filtering options, and sorting methods. -
Understanding Focused Inbox
The Focused Inbox feature in Outlook separates your inbox into two tabs: Focused and Other. - **Focused Tab**: Contains your most important emails. - **Other Tab**: Houses less critical messages, such as newsletters, making them easily accessible but out of the way. **How Does Outlook Determine Focused Emails?** Outlook analyzes your email history, considering the types of messages you receive, their content, and your most frequent contacts. It then curates a list of emails you are likely to read and respond to. If you prefer not to use the Focused Inbox, you can disable it through the settings in the Outlook Web App. -
Using Filters in Outlook
Filters allow you to define specific criteria for the emails you want to view. This is particularly useful when searching for particular messages within folders like Inbox or Sent Items. **How to Apply Filters:** 1. Click the **Filter** button located in the top right corner of your message pane. 2. Choose from the predefined filter options: - **All**: Displays all messages without filters. - **Unread**: Shows only unread messages. - **Flagged**: Displays messages marked for follow-up. - **To Me**: Shows messages sent to or copied to you. - **With Attachments**: Displays messages that include attached files. - **Mentions Me**: Highlights messages that specifically call your attention using the '@' symbol. -
Sorting Emails in Outlook
Sorting allows you to rearrange the display of emails in your message pane. By default, emails are sorted by date in descending order, meaning the newest messages appear at the top. **Sorting Options:** To sort your emails: 1. Click the **Filter** button in the top right corner of your message pane. 2. Select the **Sort** option. You can sort emails by: - **Date**: Default view, showing the most recent messages first. - **From**: Groups messages received from the same sender. - **Size**: Sorts emails based on their size. - **Subject**: Arranges messages alphabetically by subject. - **No Subject**: Messages without a subject line will appear first, followed by those with subjects in alphabetical order. -
Conclusion

These features not only help in organizing emails but also ensure that important messages are prioritized, making email management more efficient.
