 | Change how Windows Mail handles sent messages and e‑mail addresses |
| Under Sending, you'll find options for determining how Windows Mail handles messages that you create. | • | If you want to send a message immediately when you click Send from within the message instead of waiting to click Send/Receive in the main window of Windows Mail, select the Send messages immediately check box. | | • | To automatically create a new entry in Windows Contacts for every person you reply to, select the Automatically put people I reply to in my Contacts list check box. Selecting this option is a way to quickly build a contact list of names and e‑mail addresses. | | • | To have Windows Mail automatically complete partially typed names using the e‑mail addresses stored in Windows Contacts, select the Automatically complete e‑mail addresses when composing check box. | | • | If you are replying to a message and you want the original message to be included in your reply, select the Include message in reply check box. |
