Outlook recently added a new feature called Email/My Templates Use them to avoid having to re-write frequent emails.  

Some good use-cases include:  new matter request forms, any type of instructions to a client, directions to your office, etc. They aren’t super sophisticated, but they are very easy to create and helpful! 

Create and apply email templates by doing the following: 

  1. Create a blank new email.
  2. Select View Templates from the Message ribbon.
  3. Scroll to the bottom and select:
  4. Name the template in the first field and paste the following text (or your desired text) in the second field and hit Save.

To use/apply your email template, open a new email, select the View Templates button, and simply left-click on the desired template.
