done in Outlook?

thanks

I want to prevent it from getting, but allow me to send them with that
account, so deleting the account is not what I need to do,
in outlook express, there was an option to stop downloading from this
account, where is it on Outlook.

thanks

Press Ctrl Alt S to go to the Define Groups window. Click on edit and a
list of your accounts will appear on the left side. Click on each of
these and check or uncheck the boxes for sending and receiving. This
allows you to modify the way accounts are treated. You can set each
account to receive only or send only or do both.

Click to expand...

Tools>Send/Receive>Define Send/Receive Groups. Select your group (probably
All Accounts). Click Edit. Select your account. Uncheck the "Receive"
check box.

I can not see these menu items, in Outlook 2002.
Click to expand...

When you click "Tools", what menu items do you see? Do you have friendly
menus enabled? If so, there should be a double down-arrow at the bottom of
the menu. Hover your mouse over it or click it to see all of the menu
items. Now, post the entries.

thank you very much for all of your help today.

Since you didn't post the information I requested, I'm assuming you do use
friendly menus and that you found the entry I told you about.
