I am fairly new to Outlook Express, so there's a lot I
don't know yet. I am using Outlook Express version 6.
Why can't I print an e-mail letter I have composed?
Ctrl+P does nothing. I open the "File" dropdown menu and
the "Print" option is not active. I have used AOL for
years and I guess I am spoiled. I can cut and paste items
to a new letter form and then print them with ease in
AOL. How do I do the same thing with Outlook Express?
Please direct any answers to my e-mail address
with "Printing Problems" in the subject line. Thank you.
Bob

I've run into the same thing and it's a bit annoying. The
only logic I can fathom is that it is an "accounting-like"
control feature that you can't print something you didn't
really send (showing proof of something not really done).
Print it after you send or send to a fictitious address
and then print.
My issue is printing a received e-mail and not being able
to adjust margins in Outlook Express. My HP1200LJ cuts
off the date and page and if I punch holes for a binder,
it's through the text. Any ideas?

This newsgroup is for support of Outlook 97, 98, 2000, 2002 & 2003 from the
Office family for Windows PCs. For Outlook Express (OE) support try posting
in one of these newsgroups:
microsoft.public.inetexplorer.ie4.outlookexpress for OE 4.x
microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie5.outlookexpress for OE 5.x
microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie55.outlookexpress for OE 5.5x
microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie6_outlookexpress for OE 6.x

If those groups aren't carried on the news server that's carrying this group
try using msnews.microsoft.com (MS's public news server that's the source
