Ah, the Office 365 blue. Love it or hate it, you see a lot of it when you use various Office products, especially Outlook 2013 and 2016.
The blue color shows up prominently in your Outlook 2013/2016 inbox when new email messages come in, with a bold blue subject line and a blue bar indicating an unread message.
Outlook 2013 and 2016 will allow you to use Conditional Formatting in your inbox so unread messages will appear with whatever color and font style you like–you don't have to stick to blue. Watch the video above or follow these steps:
In Outlook 2007, Outlook 2013 and Outlook 2016, the font size used in the Navigation Pane can be altered via the 'Menu' item. Changing the font color can be done by setting the font color for the 'Window' item but only applies to Outlook 2007. Don't worry about that this also changed your mail list in Outlook, we can reset that later. A set of default rules appears. This includes the Unread messages rule. This rule makes unread messages appear bold in the message list. In addition, any conditional formatting rules that you created in the Organize pane with an earlier version of Outlook appear. Do any of the following: To delete a rule, select the rule, and then select Delete.
In the Mail view, click to open the mail folder where you want to bold or not bold unread messages, and click View View Settings. In the opening Advanced View Settings dialog box, please click the Conditional Formatting button. In Outlook, the default font is 11-point Calibri in black. It's used when you compose new email messages. You can change the default font and its color, size, and style - such as bold or italic. Outlook allows you to change the font, color, size, and style for new messages and replies and forwards independently.
- From the View tab in the ribbon, select View Settings.
- Click Conditional Formatting.
- With the Unread messages view selected, click Font.
- Choose whatever font style, size, and color you like.
Conditional formatting is a way to make the incoming messages that meet defined conditions stand out in the message list by using color. fonts, and styles. You specify conditions that an incoming message should meet, such as a sender's name or email address, and then conditional formatting is applied only to those messages.
For example, a conditional rule can specify that all messages sent from your manager appear in red text in the message list. If you want to make further changes to the body of your email messages, change the default font or text color for email messages.
