A little known feature of Microsoft Outlook is the ability to change the subject line for received email messages. This is very handy, particularly if you would like to change the subject to ease identification of the email in the future. Alternatively, if the sender did not provide a particularly clear subject then you can modify the subject to be more descriptive. To change the subject, double-click on the email message that you wish to modify so that it opens in a new window (you cannot do this procedure through the preview pane in Outlook). Once the email message is open in a new window, click within the current subject of the email message. It won’t look like anything has changed, but you will now see a flashing cursor within the subject. Start typing and you will see that you are able to modify the subject. Be aware, this only modifies your copy of that email message and will not affect the copy residing on the sender’s computer (in their Sent Items folder). Additionally, it does not matter what email client the sender used to send the email message – you will be able to modify the subject on your computer regardless.
