OE to Outlook 2003 transition

[dbuelke]

I've encountered a few situations in Outlook that are different from OE that I'm trying to work around.

First, if I send emails Bcc: I was able to check in the Message Source dialog in OE by hitting Ctrl-F3 to see who was all included if I wanted to check back. There doesn't seem to be anything similar in Outlook that I can find. Is there?

Second, when I send an attached MS Word 2003 letter with an email in Outlook, the script is received with blue, highlighted and underlined insertions such as <?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-comfficeffice" />
or <?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-comffice:smarttags" /> annotations by the recipient. What do these mean or do and how can I get rid of them. I noticed when this message was previewed before sending, there are little "embarrassed" emoticoms being inserted for some of the "o's" that are not part of my message?

On your CTRL-F3 question I have not found any reference to this with Outlook. Here is the Microsoft page with keyboard shortcuts for all Office programs including Outlook. Maybe you can find it here;

Have you tried Right Clicking the mail and then choosing Properties, then Details? I know this can be done with Outlook Express but am not truly familiar with Outlook so I don't know if this is available. This is one of the reasons I use OE, I just felt it offered more.
As for the attachment problem, the only reference I could find was to be certain the mail was sent in Plain Text not HTML. If you use HTML then the attachment will appear in the body of the message.
