Quick steps in Outlook
Quick steps allow you to make repetitive tasks really simple and easy, things like filing email or sending an email to a group. Most things that you find yourself doing on a regular basis can become a Quick Step.
Quicktesps live on the Ribbon
The Quick Steps Gallery – my pictures are from Outlook 2013, however the same rules apply in Outlook 2010
