IT Tip: Drag and drop emails to create appointments, contacts and tasks
print icon

Stop copying and pasting relevant text from emails into your calendar appointments, contacts and tasks.

Drag and drop emails to the icons at the bottom of your Outlook folders to create new items.

 

 

  • Drag and drop an email onto the Calendar icon and a new appointment will open containing the text from the email
  • Drop an email on the Contacts (aka People) icon and a new Contact card is created with the sender’s name and email already populated
  • Drop and email to the Tasks icon … well you get the idea
