Introduction to Email Management
Managing emails efficiently is crucial for staying organized and keeping track of tasks. Microsoft Outlook Online offers several features that can help streamline this process, making it easier to handle your workload. -

Setting Deadlines for Tasks
If you want to add urgency to your tasks, you can set a deadline. Right-click on the flag and select the appropriate deadline that fits your schedule. Remember, you are not locked into a specific deadline; it can be changed at any time as your priorities shift. -

Marking Tasks as Complete
To mark a task as complete, you can either check the box in the 'To Do' tab or click on the flag in your emails. A satisfying check mark will appear, indicating that you have successfully tackled the task. The completed task will then be removed from your active task list. -
Removing Flags from Emails
Once a task is finished and the flag is no longer needed, you can easily remove it. Right-click on the flag icon and select 'Unflag' to clear it from your email. -
