How do I change the color of the subject line (or message header) in outlook?
 
thanks, that will be helpful
Thanks, that will be helpful, but how do you change the color you send to
someone? I received an email from an individual where their name and subject
was in red, it really made the email stand out.

You can't do that. This is controlled by the view of the client. You already
have an organizing/automatic formatting rule that modified the color. Most
likely the "expired" rule.

I don't understand, how was the other person able to do it?

Anyway, thanks for your help.

Automatic Formatting works on e-mail properties. A default rule is to show
overdue e-mails in red. So the message you received could have been flagged
(CTRL+SHIFT+G) in advance or afterwards by you. When the due date of the
flag is reached the color will change to the one set in Automatic
Formatting.
