Have you even thought of keeping the contact card of sender opening but closing the email message, after you reading the message in Outlook? In Microsoft Outlook 2010 and 2013, you can pin a contact card into the Taskbar easily.

Step 1: Shift to the Mail view, and select an email and show it in the Reading Pane, or open it.

Step 2: Right click the contact picture or picture placeholder, and then select the Open Contact Card (or Contact Card in Outlook 2010).

Notes:

(1) In Outlook 2013, you can also open the contact card with double clicking.

(2) You can also open a contact card with double clicking an email address of sender or message recipients.

Step 3: In the coming contact card, click the Pin button  at the top-right corner.
