Setting up OE for Stationery
In order to properly use Outlook Express for stationery creation and stationery saving, you must first make sure a few settings are correct. This, for several reasons:
1. Enable you to save images and sounds from other posts.
2. Allow you to preview your own post before sending.
3. Allow you to reply using stationery in a message thread.
Let's begin. START OUTLOOK EXPRESS and click on TOOLS-then-OPTIONS-then-GENERAL. At the bottom of the
window, make sure that both the OE Mail Handler and News Handler is the default mail program.
This will be indicated by the two "Make Default" buttons being grayed-out. If they aren't,
click them and APPLY the change. Click OK.
Next, click on TOOLS-then-OPTIONS-then-SEND. Insure REPLY TO MESSAGES IN THE FORMAT IN WHICH THEY WERE
SENT is unchecked, and that the PLAIN TEXT options are selected for both mail and news sending
formats, as shown below. If not, check them and APPLY the change. Click OK.
Now, click on the CREATE MAIL button. When the compose window appears, first click on FORMAT-then-RICH TEXT(HTML)
to set HTML mode. Now click on the VIEW button on the toolbar. Insure SOURCE EDIT is checked, as shown below.
After you do this, these three tabs will appear at the bottom of the compose window. They will be
visible from now on when posting HTML stationery.
STEP-4. Make sure your security settings are set right.
