Sent to Onenote tag in outlook? "Ajay Malkani" <ajay[ at ]malkani.net> 4/14/2007 2:49:02 PM I use the send to onenote option a lot while working with my emails. That way I save all the stuff at one place. The problem i'm facing is that over a period of time when I go back to my inbox, I cant tell if the mail is saved to onenote already.. Sometimes i end up hitting the send to onenote 2/3 times just cos i dont rememberif ive saved the mail already. Anyway an email can get tagged once its been sent to onenote? So i can tell at a glance which messages I have saved already in onenote. Thanks, Ajay

Re: Sent to Onenote tag in outlook? "Josh Einstein" <josh[ at ]einsteintech.net> 4/14/2007 11:37:55 PM I suggest you use the Followup Flag feature of Outlook. For emails that you want to put in OneNote, you can flag them for follow up or if you already add it, you can mark it as "completed". This would be a manual thing but you can easily just tap that follow-up flag (twice to "complete" it) in order to keep a note of its status. Personally though, I would only put emails in OneNote that contain important stuff like account numbers, or that are related to a project you're documenting in OneNote, or if you need to annotate it. It doesn't make much sense to put most or all of your emails in OneNote just for the sake of having them there. Outlook is far better at organizing and sorting such data. -- Josh Einstein (Tablet PC MVP) Einstein Technologies Tablet Enhancements for Outlook - Try it free: www.tabletoutlook.com "Ajay Malkani" <ajay[ at ]malkani.net> wrote in message news:2357FA94-0A4C-49DA-80F8-18F9D5D3E9DB[ at ]microsoft.com...

This would certainly work but it has the side effect of preventing you from using the flag for something else. I have what I call an "Unprocessed" category. Its hooked to the Ctrl-F2 shortcut key which makes it easy to add and remove. I have a rule that adds this category to all incoming mail. After sending it to OneNote, I hit Ctrl-F2 to remove it.
