How can I make Outlook close to the system tray?

Question

When I close a window in Outlook, I want the program to minimize to the taskbar so I can continue receiving email notifications as I work.

I know it's possible to have Outlook minimize to the system tray, but programs like Skype, Steam, and Discord have gotten me used to programs continuing to run in the background when closed.

How can I make Outlook close to to the taskbar, so it can continue running in the background?

Answer 1

The Quick Tweaks plugin has a setting to minimize on close, and says it supports Outlook 2010. Not sure if it would still minimize to the system tray if you have that selected in Outlook.
