Buttoning up your friends
From Lockergnome:
How to add a button to the Outlook toolbar to make a new e-mail for a specific person. It’s great for those few folks you send mail to all the time.
Basically:
Open your contacts, find the person you are going to add this button for, highlight and copy his e-mail address. (That’s just to get it into the clipboard and make it easier later. You can type it in if you know it, but once you are in the middle of this you can’t stop and check your address book.)Right-click on toolbar you want to add to, select Customize
OR
Left-click on gray drop arrow on right of tool bar, click Add or Remove Buttons/CustomizeClick on Commands tab
Drag a mail message icon to the toolbar.
Right-click on the new icon and get a drop-down menu.
In “Name:” type the name of the person.
At the bottom, click Assign hyperlink/Open.
In the dialog box on the left side under Link to:, click the E-mail Address button.The top line will be a place to put an e-mail address; either paste it from your earlier copy or type it.
There you go!
