Outbox on Outlook
 

When I type a letter in Word and then try to email it directly from that
program, it sends the letter over to Outlook and it sits in my Outbox without
being sent until I open it up and click on send. Is there a way to set this
up so it automatically will send all mail in the Outbox???

In Outlook, click ToolsOptionsMail Setup. Is "Send immediately when
connected" checked?

Thanks for the response. Yes, the box is checked and mail is sent and received without a problem, except when I don't have Microsoft Outlook 2003 open, the mail still just sits in the Outbox when I try to mail photos from Corel or mailing documents from Word. I can then open the item from Outlook and click "Send" and it will email without a problem. Any ideas on how I can make Outlook automatically send those items without it being open? When Outlook is open on the desktop, everything works fine. Maybe there is no other way???

This is normal behavior. If Outlook isn't running, it cannot send messages.

There is no way for Outlook to send mail when it's not running.
