Tip 134: Automatic Journaling

Do you need to enable automatic journaling for e-mail sent to some contacts?

Rather than using the unfriendly Tools, Options, Journal dialog, add the Journal field to a contacts view and you can enable and disable journaling from the Contacts screen, either by clicking in the Journal checkbox or typing Yes or No in the journal field. You can use the Journal field with any view, including Address Card, provided in-cell editing is enabled. You can also create a Group by Journal view and drag contacts between groups to enable or disable journaling.
