I've just got a new computer with Microsoft Outlook. I want to send e-mails,
but cant find a "new memo" button. Drafts is just a blank white page, no
header, no footer, no "to" or "from" lines for addresses, no send button.
Where do I find these?

Start Outlook. Make sure you are in an email folder (use the buttons on the
left side of screen).

Then in the top left of your screen you should have a New.. button. Click it
and a new email will open.

Write in the subject field, put an email address in the To field, and write
the text in the big white area.

Then send it by clicking the Send button (top left).

Have you set up a mail account in Outlook yet?
