3. What is Outlook
Microsoft Outlook 2013 organizes your s, calendars, contacts, tasks, and to-do lists, all in one place. It all starts with your account. From there you can start working with s, turning them into tasks or appointments, and storing the people you interact with in your contacts, so you never have to remember an address or phone number. Let’s take a quick walk-through of those basic steps.

4. Outlook Web App or Outlook
Outlook Web App is a browser-based version of Outlook that supports much of the desktop installation functionality. You can perform many of the same functions in Outlook Web App that you can in a desktop installation of Outlook, from within a web browser window.
Outlook
Outlook is a program in the Microsoft suite that add many extra features to your experience.

5. Setting up an email account
The first step is setting up your account. After that, you’ll be ready to start receiving and sending , use the calendar, create contacts, and work with tasks.  
Setup gets taken care of automatically if you used an earlier version of Outlook on the same computer. If you didn’t, the Auto Account Setup will start the first time you start Outlook and step you through the process.
It’ll ask for your name, address, and a password. That’s usually enough, but if automatic setup fails, Outlook will ask for a few more pieces of information, such as your mail server name.
Our Server name is mail.lfcisd.net

6. Setting up an email account
Start Outlook by using one of the following methods:
On a computer that runs Windows 8, display the Start screen, enter Outlook, and then click the Microsoft Outlook 2013 icon.
On a computer that runs Windows 7, click the Start button, click All Programs, click Microsoft Office, and then click Microsoft Outlook 2013.
You should be logged in at your campus or inside the network in the District..

15. Create a new email message
The body in Outlook will have most of the features that your word program uses.

16. Create a new email message
Creating an message is a relatively simple process. You will usually provide information in the following fields:
To Enter the address of the primary message recipient(s) in this field. This is the only field that is absolutely required to send a message.
Subject Enter a brief description of the message contents or purpose in this field. The subject is not required, but it is important to provide information in this field, both so that you and the recipient can identify the message and so that the message isn’t blocked as suspected junk mail by a recipient’s program. Outlook will warn you if you try to send a message with no subject.
Message body Enter your message to the recipient in this field, which is a large text box. You can include many types of information, including formatted text, hyperlinks, and graphics in the message body.

17. Addressing messages
To Use for primary message recipients. Usually, these are the people you want to respond to the message. Each message must have at least one address in the To box.
Cc Use for “courtesy copy” recipients. These are usually people you want to keep informed about the subject of the message but from whom you don’t require a response.
Bcc Use for “blind courtesy copy” recipients. These are people you want to keep informed, but whom you want to keep hidden from other message recipients. Bcc recipients are not visible to any other message recipients and therefore aren’t included in message responses unless specifically added to one of the address boxes in the response message.

18. Search for a contact

19. Create a contact
Contacts can be as simple as a name and address, or can include info and details such as street addresses, multiple phone numbers, a picture, birthdays, etc. for the contact.

Many people keep To Do lists — on paper, in a spreadsheet, or with a combination of paper and electronic methods. In Outlook, you can combine various lists into one, get reminders, and track task progress.
In Tasks, click New Task.

Click File > Print.

31. Default folders: Your account starts with these default folders:
Inbox Incoming messages arrive in your Inbox unless you've created an Inbox rule to redirect them to another folder, or they're identified as junk .
Drafts If you create or respond to a message, but can't finish it right away, it will automatically be saved to your Drafts folder. You can come back to the message later to continue editing it, and then send it.
Sent Items By default, a copy of every message you send is put in your Sent Items folder.
Deleted Items When you delete a message, it's moved to the Deleted Items folder.
Junk Messages that have junk characteristics but that aren't blocked by a spam filter before they reach your mailbox will automatically be moved to this folder. Learn about junk and phishing has more information about your Junk folder.

To create a new folder, right-click the parent folder you want to create the new folder in. If you want a top-level folder (a folder at the same level as your Inbox), you would use your mailbox as the parent folder.
To create a folder within your account:
Right-click your account.
Click New folder.
Type the name you want to use for this folder.
Press Enter or click away.

35. Moving folders There are two ways to move a folder.
Click the folder you want to move and drag it to where you want it.

36. The Deleted Items folder
When you delete a message, it's first moved to the Deleted Items folder. You can either let messages stay there, or you can set Outlook to automatically empty your Deleted Items folder when you sign out. Your administrator may have set up a policy to empty items from your Deleted Items folder after they've been there for a preset number of days. For example, there may be a policy that removes anything that's been in your Deleted Items folder for 30 days.
