how to re-send a sent message

sallam · 20th February 2003

I'm truly frustrated that Outlook Express 6, though full of detailed features, lack a simple 're-send' button, or even, a message menu option. Outlook 2002 has a resend option in menu>message when you open a sent message. I stopped using Outlook 2002 because OE is way much better in many ways. A resend feature is the only thing I miss in OE.

I know how to forward, edit, then type the Email address. But it is a waste of time and dumb to do so.

How come the Microsoft guys stuff OE with the most powerfull features, and yet skip the simplest feature of a 'resend' button?

Does anyone knows how to re-send in OE6, and I mean re-send, not by forwarding, not by saving then editing?

Can't say that I've ever noticed the resend option. Been using Outlook for years.

But, it's always been understood that OE is the stripped down version of Outlook.

Looks like you've already figured out your only options.

Have to ask: How many emails a day do you need to resend? Click Forward->edit a little and boom, you're done in about four seconds.

Yep, me thinks it's going to take GOD to make a software do something it wasn't designed to do

go to the SENT files folder. Open the letter to be resent and hit foreward.
