Add a Shortcut for Creating a New E-mail

Microsoft Outlook 2003 is the best mail client I have ever seen…here are some very use full tips for u…

Add a Shortcut for Creating a New E-mail

First of all create a shortcut and direct it to Outlook…eg” "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\OFFICE11\OUTLOOK.EXE"”…

Once u have finished creating the shortcut right click and go to properties..

In the target text field after closing quotation mark add /c ipm.note switch…make sure u keep a space between the quotation mark and the / key..click apply and close…once u double click it it’ll open new email windows..u can simply drag and drop it to ur quick launch bar and save ur time..so when ever u want to write a mail u don’t want to open outlook and click new mail u can just click ur quick launch bar shortcut and access it..

Here are some other switchers u can use

Creating a New Note = /c ipm.stickynote

Creating a New Appointment =/c ipm.appointment

Creating a New Journal Entry =/c ipm.activity

Creating a New Contact = /c ipm.contact

Creating a New Task =/c ipm.task

Start from a selected user profile = /profile, (After comma keep a space and give the profile name)
As I have mentioned earlier u can create customized shortcuts to carryout certain task of Microsoft Outlook without opining the main application…

Furthermore for these shortcuts u can add different inbuilt Outlook Icons too

Select ur Outlook Shortcut right click and go to properties..select change icon..

If your e-mail client is set in your Windows XP machine
You can just goto RUN command and type
mailto:recipient@email.address
you can easily open your mapi client too.
