Help with MS Outlook

[scooter1]

I need to remove the "from" tab in MS Outlook. Its there when I create a new e-mail.

Help Please

Ta!

 

[maffew]

should be open up a new email, click view and uncheck from field (what version you on?)

 

[scooter1]

You read the "help" option too then! I tried that but the "from" option doesn't appear as a clickable option. I'm using Outlook 2003

Click on the little two down arrows. This should then give you a load more options - From Field being one of them.

na I'm on OL 2000 and its there.

sorry dunno then!

Nope, no option there - already tried that. And anyway surely it wouldn't be in a new e-mail, the option to remove this would be somewhere in the general settings - after all, I want to remove it from every e-mail I create as a generic not have to do it every time

All suggestions greatly appreciated, despite the apparent lack of success so far!!

It is in the option for a new e-mail. Not in general settings.

See attachment (note this is 2003 but is the same in 2000)

I can see on your attachment what you mean, but when I open up the view tab I don't have the from option, or the Bcc for that matter

More help for me then, is there a safe way of sending multiple emails from OUtlook 2003? Without it going nuts and sending everyone a load of spammy mails. If so, how many is safe to send?

Create a distribution list. Send it to yourself, and put the distribution list into the Bcc: field. That way no-one will see anyone elses e-mail address, and it will send it just the once, to as many people as you want.

Hope that made sense...

Oh, ans scooter, can you see at the bottom of the lsit two black arrows pointing down. looking like...

Only smaller.

So I can do as many as I like, and it's safe then? I know that's what I think you mean, but just to clarify it for me.

Depending on what version of outlook you have if someone else has given you delegate status over their inbox you will get the from field. What version are you running?

It won't break. No-one can see any of the e-mail addresses, apart from yours, and you can have as many people in the dist list as you want.

I'm running 2003, i've been through every drop down menu and sub menu and I still can't find the f***ing "from" option.

But thanks for all your efforts

in a new email click View then uncheck From Field.

 

[scooter1]

yay yay yay - f***ing found it at last.... I can sleep soundly tonight!!!

 

[scooter1]

If anybody is interested it was in the options field in the standard tool bar, not in the view drop down as so many suggested. And on that note i'm going home

Surely my image shows it is in the View field when you open a new e-mail.

Well done mate. Glad you found it.

Phil, how's you bit going?

Its not there - have you got anyone setup as a delegate - look in tools options delegates?
