Shortcut Bar in Windows Mail

Greetings,

In Outlook, there was an option for displaying the "Outlook Bar" which
contained a list of customizable shortcuts to various folders. Is there a way
to set this up in Windows Mail also? I found it so much more appealing and
convenient than the folders list. If anyone has any info. on this, I'd be
very appreciative.

Thanks in advance.

Click on View, then Layout and see what's available. You'll probably
want to try Customize Toolbar.

Hi Robert,

Thanks for the response, but I already tried that. None of the options there
refer to what I'm talking about. "Customize Toolbar" only refers to the
function icons on top.

Thanks anyway.

They removed it from OE when they went to WinMail, so you cannot invoke it
any longer.

Well, that's unfortunate (:-<). Thanks for the response, Steve. Have a good
one.
