When viewing your emails, some users may think it's a good feature that outlook automatically marks the email as read.

However, if you accidentally click on the email it is now marked as read. You can mark it as unread manually or you can set up outlook to use a delay to this service. Go to File, then open the options. Click Advanced and open the Reading Pane section, from there you can specify the time an opened email takes to be marked as read.

Your email service will automatically determine what emails are junk and they will be filtered into your junk folder, but you may receive an email from a trusted person and you 100% know that the email they are sending is safe.

Have you ever wanted to double check that the recipient of the email your sending has received your email and has successfully read it? Within Outlook, you can request a receipt for message delivery and for when they read the email.

However, the recipient of the email can still decline your request and you wouldn't know if they have read the email.
