Rutledge Outlook Clean-up
|
|
|
A quick way to reduce the size of your Outlook Folder is to search for
and delete the largest emails, usually messages with images or attached
pictures that are taking up drive space. You can delete them or save the
attachment to your local C drive or My Documents. Please let me know if
you need help saving or deleting them. You can also buy your own usb memory stick for saving personal files and images.
They are available
at the drug store as well as an office supply store.
