I am using Office Microsoft Professional 2003, with Windows XP Pro with SP2.
I use Outlook as my main e-mail program, and have "use Word as e-mail
editor" selected.
I have "auto-save" chosen in preferences, so while writing a longer e-mail,
at specified time intervals the message will auto save, so that if my
computer crashes while writing, I will not have lost what I write.
However, while writing an e-mail that takes longer than the specified time
interval for auto-save, a box keeps popping up that says (with "Microsoft
Word" in the heading):
"Saving the auto-recovery file is postponed for "Untitled Message".
In other words, auto-save is not working, the file is not being saved, and I
keep getting that annoying box telling me that.
Using Word proper, not connected to Outlook or e-mail, auto-save works fine.
So this is not a problem with Word by itself, but in connection with using
it as an e-mail editor in Outlook.
Why is auto-save not working in Word Mail, that I keep getting these
annoying pop-up error messages? Any way to fix it?
