When I send an Word document as an attachment, why do I get a copy of the
message in my Outlook? I don't want this and would like it to stop.
 
Because you're using your default email client to sent it, and presumably
you have Outlook set to save copies of sent messages.

I tried turning off the Save Sent Messages, but when I tested again from Word
(File - Send To - Mail Recipient As Attachment), it still sent the email out
to the recipient, and send a copy to me in my inbox. I just want to send the
email out without a copy of it showing up in my inbox. Thanks for the help.
 
Do you have your address in the Cc: or Bcc: field?

None. Just in the To: line. Strange, isn't it?

Any suggestions on how to stop this? I have checked all the settings and they
are set to default. I have looked through all of the help menus and different
sites, but can not find the answer.
 
Not a clue, I'm afraid. I don't use Word as my email editor, nor do I use
Outlook, so I haven't encountered this problem.

Is there anyone else who can help? The only information I have is to upgrade
to SP3 of Office and that has been done. Any other advice from you or anyone
would be greatly appreciated.
 
I would suggest posting to the Outlook group where the Outlook specialists
reside, but if the copies are being e-mailed to you, as opposed to merely
being saved, then this may be a function of the mail server you are using.
