How to Become an E-mail NinjaFrom 43 Folders: “Here are a few of
my favorite (and the site’s most popular) posts on that heated topic of email
– how to better deal with email as a recipient, and how to improve the
lives of others as a better sender. Email is a subject that invigorates (and
occasionally infuriates) me, so get ready for plenty more in the future. But
if you’re one of the seemingly innumerable people who’s snowed under by email
or unsure how to deal with it at a responsible level, flip through a
few of these oldies, and see if any ideas jump out at you.” Copying Categories between ComputersThe categories feature in Microsoft Outlook can make it easier to locate specific items as well as help you to organize your Outlook information. Unfortunately how Outlook implements this feature has changed with each release, and in Outlook 2007 it really changed! This becomes a problem if you want to move to a new computer or if you want to implement a standard for categorization for a group of users that work together. Here is a link to an article that discusses Microsoft Outlook Categories and provides step-by-step instructions from Slipstick. OH NO! I just permanently deleted the wrong file!There are few things worse than the feeling in the pit of your stomach when you delete the wrong file by mistake and for some reason it is not in the recycle bin, either because it was too big or because you not only deleted the file, but also emptied the recycle bin! Fortunately there are a number of FREE utilities that will allow you to undelete a deleted file:
Includes a ton of utilities in addition to an undelete utility. Highly recommended!
From the makers of CCleaner, the “number 1 tool for cleaning your PC.”
Recovers file from reformatted or badly formatted drives. Even can recover from drives with bad sectors since it bypasses the Windows file system and reads your drives directly.
