please send replies to this "dummy for outlook".
Entries that are programmatically added to the Outbox are not
automatically sent. When you open just the new-mail compose window,
like when using Send Email from some other application, not all of
Outlook gets loaded. Only enough of Outlook gets loaded to handle the
new-mail compose window that you see. When you click Send from there,
that e-mail get programmatically added to the Outbox folder similar to
how other program might add it. When you click Send, that item is
added to the Outbox and the stub of Outlook then closes - so there is
no longer any Outlook running to do the sending of your e-mail.
Outlook must be loaded to send anything. That means you must have ALL
of Outlook loaded when you want to send. However, when you open
Outlook (all of it), the item is already in the Outbox. There was no
trigger during that Outlook session for Outlook to see the item got
*newly* added to the Outbox folder. That's why when you only
partially load Outlook to just show the new-mail compose window that
you later have to open all of Outlook and resend that item sitting in
the Outbox.
All of Outlook has to be loaded to send anything, not just the stub
used to present the new-mail compose window. Automatic sending works
when Outlook is loaded so it can see the item got added during that
session to the Outbox. I suppose Microsoft could've coded Outlook so
that it all loaded instead of just a stub of code but that's not how
they did it.
