To create and use custom views

In Outlook Express, you can create customized views to give you the exact view of your messages that you want.

1. On the View menu, point to Current View, and then click Define Views.
2. Click New.
3. Select one or more conditions for the view you are creating.
   (The View Description box describes the view as you create it. Add or delete conditions, as necessary, to create the exact view you want.)
4. Click an underlined word in the View Description box to choose an option or to enter a value.
5. Click Show/Hide to decide whether to show or hide the messages that meet the view conditions.

Note

• If you create a view that causes messages to unexpectedly disappear from view, simply change the Show/Hide settings for the view.
