oh by the way this disconnects outlook express from dialing your provider all
together,
tip courtesy of win 98 secrets.
thanks beth for explaining the differance to me as to what the option choice
does.
true outlook express does have a work off line feature, but to use it one must
first dial up the provider if outlook is set to dial when clicking it in the
menu.
after doing so the option is under file.
one would think that prompting the user before dialling would make more sense.
of course this message closes the chapter on auto dialling, of course do not
forget to also change some other stuff like ckeck for messages every so many
minutes.
disable that if you want to work off line.
also disable send messages automaticly.
both of the above are under options.
