Version 5 is what I've got.

There is no such program as Outlook V5. There is Outlook Express V5, part
of Internet Explorer V5, but that's completely different from Outlook
Express. Moreover, authenticating is trivial in both Outlook and Outlook
Express.

Don't tell me to upgrade to newer crap !

That has nothing to do with it.

The following simple task seems impossible with this garbage
application:
I want to change one-single character in an email that I posted,
and repost the edited version.

Post? Mail doesn't get "posted" It gets "sent" and "received". News does
get "posted", but since you're complaining about a mail program, I don't see
how that's relevant. Perhaps if you were more explicit in describing your
problem you'd get an answer.

After I locate the post in the 'sent' folder, I find that
it can't be edited 'there'.
Neither if it's copied/moved to the 'drafts' folder, can it be edited.

Do you have and Edit menu available when you open the message and is there
an Edit Message item on that menu?
