Resend email message

[Barrett]

I have used Outlook 2000 for ~ 4-5 years and when I look on the help menu it
says to resend a message to go to the "sent" messages folder, open the
message you wish to resend and then go to the "actions" menu and click
"resend this message". Trouble is there is no "resend this message" option
on the "actions" menu. Therefore I have to copy the message and then paste
it in a "new" message, retype the recipients address and subject and then
"Send". What am I doing wrong?? I can't find a "resend this message"
instruction anywhere.

It should be there. Make sure your toolbar is expanded when you look. You
might need to reset the toolbar or delete outcmd.dat and restart Outlook.

You need to double click the message to open it in its own window.
Then, click on the Actions menu and the Resend menu item will be
there.

Thanks but I found out I need to double click the message. The help menu
doesn't indicate that.

Thanks - That solved the problem.
