Faster MS Office Outlook

Here is the recipe for a faster outlook.

Turn off MS Word as editor from Tools->Options->Mail Format->Uncheck Use Microsoft Office Word ....

"Compose in this Message format" should be Plain Text.

Consequences
MS Word is off loaded from memory, making outlook much faster. Good thing....

No spelling check .... very very bad!

Here is the (free) solution for spell check not only in "MS-Word free Outlook" but in any other windows application.

Download and install FreeSpell which is based on ASpell.

Freespell does the trick, select any text in any application, hit the Freespell key combination (by default WindowsKey+Z), Aspell comes into play and you have your mistake free text replaced.

The only drawback of FreeSpell is that it can not be minimize to system tray. So, download another (free) utility that can make any windows application iconify to System Tray, its called TrayIt!. No installation required, just run the downloaded executable, press CTRL, minimize your desired application and there it goes into system tray ... Neat isn't it :-).

Now I have cleaner, faster Outlook, and usable spell checker .....

Enjoy!
