REALLY closing Outlook

Tom · Feb 10, 2005

Howdy all,

How do I set Outlook 2003 to completely close, not minimize, when I click on
the 'X'? I want Outlook.exe to terminate when closed.

Thanks,
Tom

The X does completely close Outlook. If you're still seeing the icon in the
system tray, then something is keeping your Outlook open; usually an add-in.

Thanks Brian. I think it's my Pocket PC.

Outlook will continue to run as long as your Pocket PC is cradled.
