As far as I could find in the Outlook help - no (I checked outlook-2007
, but it is probably the same in that aspect).
If you bind a keyboard shortcut to launching outlook (i.e. to its shortcut) you can get almost the desired effect. Outlook will start, but identify that an instance is already running and will just restore it. It is slower than actually restoring outlook, but not that much.

I place the outlook as the top of the windows start menu. Then when I press the windows key, I will press E (which stands for e-mail client).

Install AutoHotkey and edit it's script file, add this line for Alt+Ctrl+O to achieve your desired effect:
^!O::Run, "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\Office15\OUTLOOK.EXE" /recycle
for me it is not working :( – Antoops – 2011-05-26T05:15:09.020
Try running outlook (start menu, quick launch etc.) without binding it first. See if that works. If not, it is very strange as it works for me. – RonK – 2011-05-26T05:30:09.887
First time it is working. Once it is minimized to system tray, the shortcut seems not working :( – Antoops – 2011-05-26T05:31:18.047
Seems like a keyboard bind does not work if the shortcut is in the
Quick Launch
area. However - if the shortcut is in theStart Menu
- it works for me fine. I did the binding toCtrl+Alt+1

Very weird. Try using http://www.autohotkey.com/docs/Hotkeys.htm to bind the hotkey - maybe this will help. B.T.W., Which
