Go to the “Settings” – “Signature” menu and set a signature for each account. At the same time, you can add some useful information to the signature. For example, a telephone number or an alternative emergency email address.

Outlook Integration with Other Services

Microsoft loves shopping. In addition to the program on the basis of which the mobile version of Outlook was created, the Redmond team also acquired the popular Sunrise calendar application and most of its functions are now integrated into the Outlook calendar. The service may seem simple at first glance, but it is full of surprises.

There is a fully functional calendar for two weeks, a weather forecast, comprehensive information about planned events, and extremely functional widget for your smartphone’s desktop, and so on.
