@Marcia, what is wrong with you? Can't you use the calendar/tasks/reminders in Outlook? Are you drunk?

You folks who comment here sound like the people who "The IT Crowd" rip on. The things you say are hilariously ignorant - wait, wait, I have to take a screenshot of your comments, prepare to be intertubed!

Outlook 2003, i kept an email to myself in my Inbox for my monthly report. I would then be able to open it, add text, and save it..........multiple times throughout the month. This kept it in front of me as a reminder. Now with 2007 i cant edit the text of the email in my Inbox. Is there a setting somewhere? I have to keep re-emailing it to myself.....ANNOYING. can anyone help?

My problem is, in outlook express I could change the color of my email to reflect the type of email I get like 'instant payment' would be in green. I can not figure out a way to do this in outlook 2007. They keep telling me categorize is the answer but don't work. Any help is gratefully appreciated.

The subject line change feature is not working in my Outlook 2007. My Outlook was updated from Outlook 2003 today. The feature worked in Outlook 2003.

This option is the only one that makes sense.
The other articles are just talk.

Perfect - this is the response that i think most people were looking for. If you want to save some steps, you can also right click the column bar (where from, subject, received etc are) then select "customize current view" - other settings and check "Allow in-cell editing" The downside is that you will have to do this for every folder and each "view" in which you wish to allow in cell editing. Note that you will need to click the e-mail you want to modify (which selects it in the list) then click AGAIN to get into edit mode. Also, if an e-mail has been set as private - you will not be able to change the subject.

About 75% of the emails I receive from all sources comes across with "SPAM" in the Subject line so when I forward or reply and fail to edit it, it goes out that way too...not what I would like. I have used Outlook for many years and this is the first experience I've had like this...

Is this an Outlook function or could it be due to virus protection software? If it is an Outlook issue, how do I stop this from happening? I've been through all Junk mail options and elsewhere and don't find anything about any "SPAM" tag. I appreciate your help.

update: ok, yes it does but not in READING PANE view; you have to actually open up the message - then, in order to be able to identify it later, i gave it my PERSONAL category color.

With Outlook 2007 I tried to change the subject line in the inbox and can't. In the open mesage, I clicked the Save command on the Quick Access Toolbar before exiting and wasn't prompted with the saving dialog box.
