Remove Account From Default Send/Receive

[Larry R Harrison Jr]

It's very easy to keep an email account in Outlook Express yet exclude it
from normal send/receive operations. I can see no such thing for email
accounts in Outlook XP. Where is it?

I've been under "Tools--Email Accounts" and advanced options, seemingly
everything. I just can't find it.

Sorry for the bother, I found it--in a weird & unusual place (I think).

You have to select "Tools...Options" then the "Mail Setup" tab then
"Send-Receive" then click the GROUP "All Accounts" in the group name box,
then "Edit."

Huh? That's kind of a weird way to do it. But anyway. Problem solved.

You have to select "Tools...Options" then the "Mail Setup" tab then
"Send-Receive" then click the GROUP "All Accounts" in the group name

Or Tools>Send/Receive>Send/Receive Setup>Define Send/Receive Groups. Select
All Accounts and click Edit.
