Outlook Webmail provides you with two toolbars to complete most common tasks. The common toolbar appears the same no matter what view of Webmail is displayed, while the context-relative toolbar displays different options specific to the current view.
The common toolbar allows you to search for contacts, open another Webmail account or sign out of your own account, and provides access to the Options view.
