Send/Receive in Outlook

[Guest]

IN my VB app, I can have users click on an email address and Outllook will
open (or Word will open as the email edtior for outlook), and the user can
complete and click on send. But when they click on send, the email is sent
to the outbox and not actually sent. The user must then open outlook and
click on send/receive to get the mail out.

Is there some configuration of outlook, or something I can do in my code to
force the email to go out immediately instead of sitting in the Outbox in
Outlook?

Thanks for any help on this,
Mark

The user must configure Outlook to send e-mails automatically. And your app
must hold Outlook for long enough, e.g. after the user has clicked Send
check the Outbox periodically, if Items.Count is 0 the message is out.

Hello Markus,
I have the same question as yours. Did u manage to figure out how to do it?
It is much easier on outllok express than in outlook 2007
