The steps
The exact sequence, in order.
- 01
Open the Copilot pane in Outlook.
- 02
Ask: “Summarize the emails I haven’t read in the last 24 hours, starting with the ones that need an action.”
- 03
Read the first three points, then open the source message to check them.
- 04
Handle first whatever carries a deadline today.
The prompt to copy
Word for word, exactly as shown in the video.
Summarize the emails I haven’t read in the last 24 hours, starting with the ones that need an action.
The habit to keep
You read the summary, but the first line of the list is what decides your morning.
Worth knowing
What the video does not hide from you.
The summary does not replace reading: a message ranked too low can hide something urgent. Open the source before you reply.
