Sending Messages with a blank Subject line

How do I get Outlook 2003 to warn me if the message I am about to send has a
blank Subject line?

There is no such feature, but you can build it in with a little 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

For a more elaborate version that also checks for expected attachments, see
