Printing Draft Emails

[Guest]

We had been using Outlook Express 6 and just switched to Outlook 2003. When
we would print Draft emails in OE6 we could see who the email was From, To
(both name and email address), and attachments. I have been fighting Outlook
to give me the same results.

The problem is for Draft emails, the name for whom it is From does not
print. It shows on the email that it will be sent via so and so. Also when
I select the option for showing the From under View, and then click it, it
brings up the address book not the email accounts.

Do I have any options or do I need to switch back to OE6?

Thank you
Lonnie

Save the message. Turn off WordMail as your editor. Then print.

Thank you Sue,

I meant to mention that I am not using WordMail as the editor. From the
'Accounts' button on the toolbar I select the address I want it to be sent
from. It shows that it will be sent via the address but it does not print.
I do however get the 'To', 'Subject', and 'Attachments' to print.

Also as when I click on the 'From' button (instead of the 'Accounts'), why
does it open the address book and not the accouts list?

Thanks again
Lonnie

Outlook doesn't add the final From address to the message until after you
send it.

The From field is available for those users in mail environments that allow
them to send on behalf of other people.
