merge to email: why don't the emails show up in my "Sent Items"?

[Jan]

Using Word 2003, Outlook 2003
I'm experienced with useing mail merge, so I don't think I've neglected any
steps. When I', finished with a merge to email, though, my messages don't
show up in my Sent Items, Outbox, or Drafts. So how do I know whether the
messages have been sent???

If the operation was completed, you would almost certainly get the Outlook
Security message that a program is trying to send an email to which (unless
you install a utility such as Express Click Yes) you would have to answer
for each email that the merge is sending.

This makes me think that you have not actually executed the merge to email.

For info on Express Click Yes, see the article "Mail Merge to E-mail with
Attachments" at
