Modifying your Outlook Clutter Settings
|
|
Clutter is a feature that was introduced by Microsoft approximately eight months ago as a way to keep Outlook inboxes free of unwanted e-mails. Unfortunately, as many of us have experienced, Clutter sometimes grabs non-junk e-mails and we don't realize it until it's too late. Click here to learn more about how to modify your Clutter settings..

In last week's Hot News, we told you about an exciting opportunity to take free Rosetta Stone language courses for the next year. Due to licensing requirements with the company, community members will have to go to the login portal directly from our
website each time (bookmarking the site may result in a denial of access). Please go to the Community drop-down menu and click the Rosetta Stone link from there. That should fix the issues people are having trying to follow the hyperlink we placed in our issue last week. Our apologies!
