Outlook should confirm before sending blank subject lines

[Guest]

If many email clients, including Outlook Express, can manage to ask for user
confirmation before sending mail with a blank subject line why can't Outlook?

Outlook can, with a tiny bit of VBA code:

Private Sub Application_ItemSend _
(ByVal Item As Object, Cancel As Boolean)
If Item.Subject = "" Then
Cancel = True
MsgBox "Please fill in the subject before sending.", _
vbExclamation, "Missing Subject"
End If
End Sub
