Turn on View As Conversations and Outlook will display messages in threads, including messages from other folders (such as your Sent Items folders). This feature allows you to easily view all the messages in a thread before replying to an individual message.
- [Narrator] Viewing by conversation is a feature … that was added to Outlook a little while ago. … I know some people turned it off … so I want to make sure that you know … where to turn it back on. … Show as Conversations is found in View. … Right here, Show as Conversations … and there is some settings, … we'll talk about that in a moment. … But first, let me make it clear … what the importance of this is … and how it helps you. … When Show as Conversations is turned on, … in your Inbox and in every other mail folder, … all of the messages that are part … of the same conversation or conversation thread … get grouped together. … And they appear in your email … on the date of the most recent contribution … to that conversation. … And the reason I love this is, … if I'm out of the office … and I come back and going through my email … I don't have to necessarily start … at the bottom of my Inbox. … With the oldest messages … and work my way up to follow a conversation. … That is what I used to need to do. …
