Sending emails with Word

[Dave Neve]

Hi

I've just installed Office 2003 and I'm having some problems with it.

When I program it to use Word 2003 to send emails (I click on new message
and Word opens up), everything is ok except that there are only Cc and Cci
lines at the top of the message.

When I click on 'send', the message is transferred into Outlook but the
'from' line in Outlook remains blank.

As many antispam softwares treat such messages as spam, I'd like to know how
to add a 'from' line when using Word to send emails.

Thanks in advance

The FROM field should default to whatever your default mail account is. Do
you have Outlook configured with at least one mail account?

Hi

I definately do have an account configured in Outlook and it is marked 'by
default'.

But the from field doesn't default to anything.

Can you help?

Thanks

Hello again

The problem seems to have got worse after I downloaded updates for Office
2003

I can no longer send out any messages whether they are written with Word or
Outlook.

When I test the account however using the Outlook tool 'test the acccount
parameters' , a message goes out and I get it back via the NET.

But when I type a message myself, it is not sent and there is no error
window.

It justs sits there.

Any ideas please?

Thanks

Did you try running Detect & Repair? (Help menu)
