Default Mailmerge to Outlook from Word

Hi,
I attempted to do a Mailmerge to Outlook from Word.
I worked OK but the messages were dumped into my Outbox and were sent off
before I could modify them.

Yep ! I need to modify hem before they go.
I need to attach various files to various messages so I need the mails to be
deposited in some other Outlook Folder where they can remain "on hold" or
else some way to suspend the Outbox behaviour that send the messages as soon
as it can.

Is that possible ?

Thanks

Why don't you just set Outlook to Work Offline before you complete the
merge?
