In a fresh development, you’re CC’d on the message, but you’re not actually expected to respond. If you want to make these emails easier to spot, you can set Outlook to highlight them in a different color. Here’s how to do it:. You probably get plenty of emails that are there to just keep you informed.

According to the latest update, next, click Add and enter a name such as CC Emails. Click on Font, set the color (something bright and distinctive), and close the window by confirming with OK. If you’re using the classic version of Outlook, go to View > View Options > Conditional Formatting.

According to the latest update, tick the box next to In Which I and, in the menu to the right, select the option I am listed with other recipients on the CC line. Close the windows by clicking OK. In the Messages tab, click on Condition.

As part of the ongoing story, first, go to View > View Settings and then select Mail on the left-hand side. The fresh version of Outlook supports this highlighting capability, too.

In a fresh development, enter CC email as the name for the fresh rule and, in the Condition menu, select the option I am listed in the CC field. Nest, click on Select Color and pick your favorite hue. Confirm by clicking OK and Save, then close the window. In the second column, select Conditional Formatting and click Add Rule in the right-hand pane.
