Inside the brain of a Geek: Multiple actions in one Quick Step

Quick Steps is a feature in Outlook 2010 that applies multiple actions in one-step. I have a Quick Step setup to start my reminder emails. It takes me one click to start a new email with the To, Bcc, Subject, and partial text already filled in.  Other options:  Move to folder and mark the email as read or Forwards the email to specific address or addresses.

Click Home – Quick Steps – click Create New

Type in a Name:

Choose an Action – New Message.  Add the email address

You can add additional actions by clicking Add Action.

Click Finish.
