Why Not Utilize Bookmarks to Quickly Jump to a Specific Location in Outlook Messages?

Same as MS Word, Outlook also comes loaded with bookmark feature. Via utilizing bookmarks, we can quickly skip to the specific location in the messages without needs to scroll through large blocks of text.

No matter in my drafts, received emails or sent emails, I always prefer to add bookmarks, such that I can quickly locate my desired places. Of course, to those received and sent emails, I should set the message in edit mode at first and then can add the bookmarks. Here are some tips pertaining to the bookmarks in Outlook messages.
