First things first:

Add your account

Before you can send or receive messages, you have to connect your email account. If your company uses Microsoft Exchange, Outlook 2013 will attempt to set up your email account for you.

If you use Internet-based email (such as Hotmail, Gmail, or Yahoo!), enter your name, email address, and password to set up your account.

Change the Office Theme

We’ve redesigned Office 2013 to provide a clean, uncluttered experience — like a blank piece of paper. If you want to see the different areas of Outlook more distinctly, you can change the Office Theme.

Use your File > Office Account settings to change the Office 2013 color scheme for all of your computers, or use the Outlook Options to change the color scheme on just this computer. You can choose from White, Light Gray, or Dark Gray.
