Messages
plays a vital role in every field either it’s a business field or
an IT firm. Most of us choose emails for safe and secure mode of
communication and if, I talk about email Outlook Express is my
favorite email client because of its ease and simplicity. It provides
user various options to send emails using files like images etc. This
make message more attractive and informative.

more images to this folder by following its manual procedure. Let me

created by using images, colors etc for outgoing emails. Message
created by using stationary provides user more options to adjust the
Settings of their message like Font settings, text color and position
etc. This folder is located on underwritten address
Location:
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Stationery
