The hidden virtues of Outlook

socialThe Outlook it is not a simple e-mail . Αυτό είναι γνωστό. Μάλιστα, δεν είναι καν ένας απλός PIM (personal information manager), αν και σε αυτά ακριβώς τα features excels.

Outlook has several interesting additions with which we can increase functions and decrease them individually which we should open every time to do some specific things. For example, the simplest addition is the Hotmail Connector (which has not changed its name despite Hotmail changing to Outlook.com). As its name suggests, this plugin allows us to use its e-mail cloud through Outlook. Versions 2003, 2007 and 2010 are supported and all we have to do is enter our Outlook.com account details. Then all our electronic mail will be downloaded and we will see it in the program as a second Inbox.

Another interesting and very useful addition is the Social Connector. And this supports 2003 to 2010 versions (Outlook 2013 has it all built-in) and allows us to connect Windows Live, SharePoint, but also popular third-party services, such as Facebook and within Outlook. If you install the Social Connector on the Ribbon View tab, you'll see a new People Pane icon. We select Normal and we notice that every incoming email displays a small area at the bottom that shows the activity of that sender on the services and social networks we have linked to.
