Default Using "SendObject" in access to send Email

From a responce from the Access group I learned that the "SendObject" can't
be configured to work with AOL so my only choice is to setup outlook on the
same PC and use outlook to ONLY be used for send fron Access. AOL will
still be the 'defaut email pgm'. How do I do this? I have tried puting in a
fake Incoming email[POP3] address and leaving the field blank. Both produce
errors.

so the question now is - how do I set up Outlook to only send and not recieve.

I have been using the "SendObject" command to email reports and it works
great as long as the user has MS Outlook as their mail program. Users
that
have AOL (and I can't convince them it adds no value) get errors.

Can the SendObject be configured to other mail programs than MS Outlook?
If
not can I set up Outlook on the same PC to just be used to send from
Access
and still have AOL for everyday mail send/receive.

I will post this question on the Outlook site as well.
