    If you have sent mail to the person before, or have the person listed in your address book (People), OWA will automatically come up with Suggested contacts and just choose the person you want to send the mail to.

    If you are going to send a mail to someone other than those suggested, just enter the person's mail address.

    In the Cc and Bcc fields, you can enter the mail addresses of people who should receive a copy of the mail.
  3. Give the email an appropriate title in the Subject field.
  4. Write the mail's content above the signature.
  5. You can format the mail's content, thus sending the mail as an HTML text instead of plain text.
