to allow you to identify what that attached file is. Only the name of the
file is displayed and this is generally not descriptive enough to identify my
files? Ideally, at the point of attaching the file I would want to enter a
text to state what the file was.... |

database and returns an error. SQL Server will not run, ie. it will not start
and reports 'stopped'. I assume the two problems are interrelated. Can anyone

You can delay sending in regular Outlook. You just type up your e-mails and

If it were me, I'd just create templates (drafts) that you resend to your
