Message settings are used to alert the recipient of information about the importance and sensitivity of a message. The message importance is indicated by an icon after the message subject in the Inbox. Both important and sensitivity are displayed in the InfoBar of the message subject in the Inbox. Some messages are more important than others. You may send routine mail messages that don’t need any special attention or handling.
To set the priority of a message:
- Click the Options button on the toolbar in the message.
The message options dialog box appears.
- Click the triangle at the right end of the Importance box.
- Choose High, Normal or Low.
Note: Usually Importance is set to Normal, so you don’t have to do anything.
- Click Close or (press Esc).
Note: A quicker way to set the priority of a message is to use the buttons in the message toolbar.
