How to force Outlook to empty the outbox?

My father-in-law uses Outlook on a dialup connection. If he writes a new messages while being offline, Outlook places the message in the outbox. When he goes online he has to empty the outbox manually (right-clicking on each mail and choosing send).


Is it not possible to configure Outlook so that it automatically sends all mails in the outbox when the computer goes online?|||OPEN OUTLOOK EXPRESS,TOOLS,OPTIONS,


GENERAL TAB-- SEND/RECEIVE MESSEGES--CLICK ON SEND AND RECEIVE MESSAGES AT STARTUP.


THEN HE SEND ALL MESSAGES AT STARTUP.


THIS IS SAME FOR MS OUTLOOK ALSO.|||Outlook simply requires you to press the "Send %26amp; Receive" button on the toolbar onc you're connected, and all emails should go.





If you can't find that button then you need to ensure you have the right toolbars enabled by right clicking a toolbar and choosing "Standard". If it's still not there then click "Customise" and put it back on!
