My Outlook 2003 does not appear to have a send and receive button. It might
be hidden somewhere, but it is not even on the standard tool bar, or anywhere
else!! HELP someone please.

What buttons do you see on the toolbar? What type of account have you
configured?

What buttons do you see on the toolbar? What type of account have you
configured?

When I first "launch" Outlook, I can see the send/receive button, then it
disappears when Outlook is completely open. I think the problem is the new
account I am trying to set up, and/or the fact that Outlook Express is still
my default mail. I get an error message in Outlook after I have set up the
account that says the e-mail field is wrong, and I don't understand why.
Shuld my new account have a different user name and e-mail address, or should
it be the same? I don't believe I have set up the new account correctly,
and that is why the send/receive button "disappears". I asked Verizon to
help me yesterday, but that was a joke -- all they did was make it so I had
to reconfigure Outlook Express!!



Thans for your reply.

Your email account details should be the same in both Outlook and Outlook
Express; having OE as default only means that it is launched instead of
Outlook for anything requiring email (an email link in a web page, for
example). If the OE account works, try importing your OE setings,
'File|Import and Export|Import Internet Mail Account Settings'.
