MORE INFORMATION

Tracking Activities with Contacts

A Contacts field on all Outlook item types allows the association of the items with a contact or multiple contacts. The contact is associated using the Contact button, or automatically if the item is created using the Contact Actions menu. The Activities tab displays all items that are associated with a contact in this way. The Activities tab also uses the contact's e-mail address to find e-mail sent to, or received from the contact.
