A great blog post on disabling Outlook 2003 “IN YOUR FACE” features. Of course, when Outlook 2003 came out, it was very cool that you see each inbound email pop up in the bottom-right corner. Another one of those features that is cool from a technology standpoint, but bad from a productivity standpoint.
- Click “Tools…”
- Click “Options…”
- On “Preferences” tab, click “E-mail Options…”
- Click “Advanced E-Mail Options…”
- Uncheck all 4 boxes under “When new items arrive in my Inbox”
Now you can read your email on your own schedule.
