Thanks Yoad! We corrected.
Hey SolSie, another good outlook plugin is Outlook Track-It. I don’t use it for devices, but it gave me a toolbar that helps me set reminders for followup emails. Even the recipient can be reminded.
thanks jason! I went to the Outlook Track-It and got the trial. It’s great so far.
Great app! Like it very much.
