Send and Receive Option

J

Jerry

On my desktop I have send and receive button/tab.

Some how on my notebook, I have failed to check this option and so it does
not show up. Could someone please help me to find where to check so that I
always have at hand the option to send and receive. I would be grateful

MS Office Outlook 2007

Thanks for any help

Did you yet define an account so you can receive and send to it?

Unless you set up your email account properly with your ISP the Send\Receive button
will not show

With Outlook closed, delete the file outcmd.dat in the (usually hidden) folder
%AppData%\Microsoft\Outlook and try again.

You really sure? http://support.microsoft.com/kb/297863

What TYPE of e-mail accounts are defined in Outlook? Did you just
install OL2007 and were previously using Outlook Express with a Hotmail
account? If so, read http://support.microsoft.com/kb/293075 (you'll
have to define a POP account in OL2007 unless you go with the Outlook
Connector add-on to add Deltasync support to Outlook).

Is this the Send button that should appear in the toolbar when you are
composing a new e-mail?

Did you perhaps customize the toolbar? If so, right-click on an unused
portion of the toolbar, Customize, select Standard toolbar, and click
Reset. Otherwise you can delete the outcmd.dat file to reset your
customizations back to the defaults.

I doubt that. Outlook hasn't a clue as to what are the correct
parameters to define an account in Outlook that will work with the
targeted e-mail provider. Defining an account does NOT require you
actually use that account. Outlook won't know the parameter are
incorrect until you actually have Outlook try to establish a mail
session.
