If you want to get quickly from a contact to a calendar event, which kind of link should you create in the contact?
- A.
A reminder.
- B.
A shortcut.
- C.
An attachment.
- D.
None of the above.
Correct Answer
B. A shortcut.Explanation
Creating a shortcut in the contact allows for quick access to a calendar event. This means that with just a click on the shortcut, the user can directly navigate to the calendar event without the need to search or browse through the calendar. Creating a reminder in the contact would only set a reminder for the user, but it wouldn't directly link to the calendar event. Similarly, attaching a calendar event to the contact would not provide a direct link to the event. Therefore, the most suitable option for quickly accessing a calendar event from a contact is to create a shortcut.Rate this question:

Which of the following might result if you added your own e-mail name to the Safe Recipients List?
- A.
You might not receive any e-mail.
- B.
You might receive a lot of junk e-mail.
- C.
You might receive e-mail intended for someone else.
- D.
None of the above.
Correct Answer
B. You might receive a lot of junk e-mail.Explanation
If you add your own e-mail name to the Safe Recipients List, it means that you are marking your own e-mail address as safe. This can result in receiving a lot of junk e-mail because by marking your own address as safe, you are essentially telling the system to allow any emails sent from your own address to bypass the spam filters. This can make it easier for spammers to send junk emails to your inbox, as they can spoof your own address and make it appear as if the emails are coming from you.Rate this question:
