    I am sooo frustrated that I cannot close a page! With Comcast it was sooo simple.

    For example, I clicked on sent message and one appeared on the screen. Now I can't get it off!

    Isnt't there a simple way to close what is on the screen. I've gone out of Outlook and come back in and the same thing is on the screen.

    You don't know how many superfluous windows I was stacking up of emails I was mentally done with.

    I hope that this is the right place for this. Here goes. I have done something to Microsoft Outlook such that when I open a message in the Inbox it disappears when I close it. How can I make the message remain in the Inbox unless I want to delete it.

    I wrote an email in a hotmail format IN the HorizonChristian Fellowship email listing contact list. It was a long letter and did not go through. Where is it in cyber space. Can I retrive it? Please help.

    Great, except these choices are not available in my configuration. Why not?

    how do I delete the original sent message when I reply to it. When I send an email message, I have it set to keep the original message with it but then I end up with the original all by itself also. A duplicate that I want to delete automatically.

    Can I block this from happening to me, when people have marked the message as closed after replying? Anyway to get around the lined out message to open it, especially if its a reply to my original message?
