Outlook 2003 and "Send page by email" behaviour

D

Davebo

As a long time Outlook Express user, I've become accustomed to be able
to send links or webpages from IE using File-Send-Page/Link by email. A
message window will popup, I type in an address and press send. The
message is sent immediately, even if OE is not running.

However, using Outlook 2003, the message is not sent right away.
Outlook closes, and the message is left in the outbox until the next
time I fire up Outlook.

I found this knowledge base article, but it applies to attachemnts.
Even if I select (from IE6) Tools-Mail&News-New Message... without an
attachemnt, the message is not sent immediately. It's sent to my outbox
and sits there until I open Outlook.

Here's the article - it's mentions Word as the app that will have this
problem. Does IE use mapi as well?

Is there a way to have the message send immediately?

(I'm running Xp Pro btw)
