Outlook 2007 Categories

[LSchenk]

When using Categories in earlier versions of Outlook, a message you responded
to would automatically adopt the Category you had assigned to the original
message. I cannot find a way to make that happen with Outlook 2007. As a
result, it takes a lot of time assigning Categories to my sent messages which
otherwise would have been automatically assigned.

There's a new rule in OL07 that removes by default categories from incoming
emails. You can disable the rule.

Additionally, since OL07 it is not expected that you want to assign a
category to an outgoing email at all. Thus, there's no Categorize button for
a message you compose, and Outlook doesn't send categories by default.

Here's a file you can download and run. That will make Outlook sending
categories again:

If you want to assign quickly a category to an outgoing message, try
Category Manager, which adds a sidebar with all of your categories. For
details see the link in my signature, please.
