Key points about customizing the Vocabulary from e-mail:
 Dragon can quickly adapt its Vocabulary from your use of e-mail in Lotus Notes, Microsoft Outlook,
Outlook Express, or Windows Mail thanks to a tool available in its Vocabulary menu and Accuracy
Center: Increase Accuracy From E-Mail.
 This tool performs two functions: it finds and lists potentially useful contact names to add, and it also
analyzes your sent e-mails to “adapt to the writing style”, i.e. to refine the word usage information in
the Vocabulary’s Language Model.
 As for document-analysis, when presented with the list of potential items to add, you can choose to
check all, uncheck all, and edit any of the items: click the item, click the Edit button, then modify as
needed.
 Use this tool as soon as possible after creating a profile, then every few weeks so that Dragon can
adapt your profile from the emails you most recently sent. (After the first time, the process will be
quick.)
 Remember that Dragon needs to “know about” your contacts in order to transcribe their name
correctly—this is particularly important for Version 11’s shortcut commands such as “email that to…”
and “schedule meeting with…” (supported in Microsoft Outlook).
