HOWTO reenable warning for sending via CTRL+Enter

As you can guess I am not an Outlook expert ;)

I accidentially disabled the warning/request that is displayed before you send a mail via the hot key ctrl+enter.
How can I enable that warning/request/extra step again?

So I want to use the ctrl+enter shortcut, but I want to be asked again if the mail is ready to send.

I didn't find the answer in the options, help or forum search :(

Any help is very welcome :)

Thanks a lot, Robert :d

You made an old penguin hugger very happy :)

@anyone having the same prob: The fix suggested above resets the ctrl+enter sending hot key setting. If you use it again the extra confirmation I was missing pops up so that actually did the job.

You will probably have the same effect without touching the registry by just disabling it (and maybe enabling it again) in the outlook options. Its just that there is no setting to bring back the safety net question so you have to disable and reenable the whole feature.

@anyone who has the freedom to choose his software I can still only say: use Thunderbird (www.mozilla.org) ;)
