| You can create additional folders to organize messages into different categories, like "Urgent" or "Personal," or you can organize messages by a particular project or class. Outlook Web Access allows you to delete folders, and to move and copy existing folders to suit your needs.
The following are examples of uses for subfolders:
- Create a subfolder for each class you teach and subfolders for discussion groups that you subscribe to.
- Create subfolders within subfolders. For example, you might create subfolders in each class folder for the types of e-mail you get from students. Create a folder for homework, one for questions, and another for response papers.
To create subfolders:
- Right-click on the Inbox, click New Folder. The Create New Folder dialog box opens.
- In the Name box, type a name for the new folder.
- In the Folder contains drop-down box, select the type of items to be placed in the folder. If you are going to store e-mail messages in this subfolder, select Mail Items.
- In the Select where to place the folder box, choose the folder where you want to place the new subfolder. This can be your Personal Folder, any of the 10 subfolders in your Personal Folder, or any subfolders in within the 10 subfolders.
- Click OK. The new subfolder is created in the location you chose.
Once your subfolders are created, simply click on a message and, while holding down the mouse button, drag the message to the subfolder and release the mouse button to place the message in the folder. To view the contents of a subfolder, click on the subfolder in the folders list. The messages in that subfolder will be displayed in the Message Pane.
