Emails: Still an inevitable way of communication

Even though there is a ton of team-collaborative apps available for project people nowadays but in most of the organizations, emails are still considered a dominant way of communications within team members. Likewise, Microsoft Outlook is more popular than anything for email and event organizing tool. You may be using various direct tools like Quick Steps,Rulesand Categoriesto organize your emails in outlook.

Snooze or remind me later tool available in various email organizing applications like Boomerang for Gmail, MailButler for Apple Mail, Inbox by Google. When you are snoozing an email, it disappeared from inbox for a while and reappear at the specified time or after specific time period. By this way, you never miss important deadlines for actions on the email.

Can I snooze an email in Microsoft Outlook?

No, but Yes. There is no direct snooze tool available but it is definitely possible to snooze an email in the inbox of outlook. There is another benefit of snoozing an email is your inbox works a to-do list for today. To do this you need to create a new view of your inbox in outlook with filters.

I am going to give you a step by step guide for making it possible so you can do it by yourself easily.

1. Create a new snooze view

• Click on View tab.

• Click Change View.
• Select Save Current View As a New View.. from the menu.

• Give a name to the new view like Snooze Email or To-do list View.
• Select All Mail and Post Folders option from the radio button.
• Click OK.

This new view is not compulsory to create but this creation will give you the option to go back to your original view smoothly whenever you like to do so.

2. Apply filters

• Click on View Settings under the View tab.

• Click on Filter.. button.

• Click on Advanced tab.
• To define a criterion, select the Field > Frequently-used fields > Due Date.

• Select does not exist Condition from the drop-down list.
• Press Add to List.

• To add another criterion, select the Field > Frequently-used fields > Due Date.
• Select On or beforeCondition from the drop-down list.
• In Value field, type Today.
• Press Add to List.
• To add the third criterion, select the Field > Frequently-used fields > Flag Status.
• Select not equal to Condition from the drop-down list.
• In Value field, select Completed.
• Press Add to List.
• Click OK.

As soon as you press OK, all the email with due dates provided or completed flag will disappear from your inbox. Mail with due dates will reappear on your inbox on the due date.

3. Apply Flags

• Right-click on the flag (symbol) against the top-most email in your inbox.
• Select an appropriate option (when do you want to reappear the email in the inbox?)
• Just to remind you that setting an item to This Week will set the reappear/due date to the upcoming Friday and Next Week will set it to the following Monday. You can choose Custom.. to set any specific date you want to have it reappear as well, even telling Outlook to throw a reminder if you like.

This is an important step. The first time it may seem tedious, but there is an alternative to do that by using the move to folder tool for the emails which do not require your actions.

How to snooze the whole email conversation?

Because most of the readers are asking this question, I thought I should include it in the article.

If you are using the conversation view in the outlook, follow few more steps.

1. Open the conversation by clicking on the triangle on the left.

2. Select the subject line of the email conversation.

3. Apply flag to the subject line (whole email conversation).

Start Snoozing Email

Once you have applied filter, all you need to do is when you receive any new email, you just need to provide a flag to it. It will reappear at your convenient date, until that day it will be out of sight, out of mind. So you do not need to worry about the emails which are not important to you. Rather deleting it, you can mark them with CompletedFlag Status and it will be disappeared forever. (Tip: You can use Quick Step Done to do it with one click.)

If you ever wish to see all the emails again, go back to View tab and change to your original view.

More than 10 million people rely on Groups in Outlook every month to work together and get things done. Groups is proving useful to our customers. And for that, we couldn’t be more thankful. Groups in Outlook offers huge improvements over traditional distribution lists, with a shared space for group conversations, calendars, files and notebooks, the convenience of self-service membership and much more.

Today, we’re pleased to announce Groups is now rolling out to Outlook for Mac, iOS and Android. Groups is already available in Outlook for Windows and on the web—so now you can access your group conversations and content no matter which platform you use.

With these updates, you can:

• View your group list.
• Read and reply to group conversations.
• Add group events to your personal calendar.
• View unread messages sent to the group.
• View group details within the group card (Outlook for iOS and Android only).

There is more to come as we continue to work on making Groups better in response to your input, so stay tuned.

Recently released updates for Groups in Outlook

In addition to bringing groups to more Outlook apps, we’ve released several new features for Groups in Outlook on other platforms, too.

Give guest access—Last fall, we updated Outlook on the web to give you the ability to set up guest access for people outside your organization, set group classification as defined by Office 365 admins, and view usage guidelines. Now, these same capabilities are available in Outlook for Windows.

Invite people to join—One of our most requested improvements was an easier way to invite multiple people to join a group. We’ve released the Invite to join feature to Outlook on the web, which lets you create invitation links and share them with others via email or other channels, giving them a quick way to join the group.

Multi-delete conversations—Group owners can now multi-select conversations and delete them from the group conversations space in Outlook for Windows.

Send email as a group—Office 365 admins can grant send-as and send-on-behalf-of permissions to members of a group using the Exchange admin center. Group members who have these permissions can then send emails as the group, or on behalf of the group, from Outlook for Windows and Outlook on the web.

What’s next

We’re always listening to your feedback as we deliver new Groups capabilities to Outlook. Here are a few of your key requests we are going to tackle next:

• Add appointments to a group calendar in Outlook for Windows—When adding an event to a group calendar, you will have the option to do so without sending an invite to everyone in the group.
• Addition of Mail Contacts as guests—You will be able to easily add Mail Contacts in your company’s directory as a guest in a group.

Thanks for the feedback, and please keep it coming via our UserVoice site.
