Folder Home Pages
Outlook 2000 takes the concept of Outlook 98, and the technology it provided, a step further with its folder home pages. This new feature allows any folder to be assigned a Web page URL, allowing you to use these folders to link to external Web sites or create customized Web views for individual folders.
