Double-Click on addresses to send email like Outlook Express?

[Andrew]

In Outlook Express, there is an open address book that
shows up under the folder list. You can double click on
teh address and it automatilcally starts an email to that
contact. Is it possible to set this up in Outlook as
well? Or is this just an Outlook Express feature?

Thanks.

Well, first of all, Outlook doesn't have that Contacts pane underneath
the folder list, so you'd have to access the addresses another way. You
can go to the Contacts folder and right-click on a contact name to get a
context menu which includes several possible actions for that contact,
including "New Message to Contact". Will that do?

FWIW, Outlook and Outlook Express are two completely different
programs...so while some things may function the same way in the two
programs, you can expect many other functions to be quite different.
