Addressing a Reply

When you click the Reply or Reply to All button, the New Message form will open with the relevant name(s) automatically filled into the To and Cc fields. When you forward a message, you will have to fill in these names yourself.

To address a reply:

  1. To add an address, in the To or Cc fields, type the person's name, or click the To or Cc buttons.

    Note  This will open the Find Names dialog box, which allows you to search through your organization's global address list for a particular recipient. Once you locate a person through Find Names, their name can be added directly to your e-mail message.

     

  2. To add blind carbon copy recipients, in the Bcc field, type their names, or click Bcc to open the Find Names dialog box.

    Note  Bcc recipients receive a copy of the message, but their names do not appear in the list of recipients. Each Bcc recipient cannot see the names of other Bcc recipients. If no Bcc field is present and you want to add Bcc names, click the Options tab, and then select Show Bcc. By default, Outlook Web Access messages do not include the Bcc field.

     

  3. In the Subject field, type a brief subject line.

    Note  When replying to or forwarding a message, the Subject field will already be filled in. RE will precede the subject of a message you are replying to. FW will precede the subject of a message you are forwarding. You can leave this subject, or you can delete it and type in a new subject of your own.

     

  4. Type your message in the message body. You can compose a response to the message above or within the text of the sender's original message.
