right-hand corner, instead of the minimum button. There are several ways you
can prevent this.
If you have Outlook 2003 or Outlook 2007 set to minimize to the tray
(notification area),
Unsent method
Open a new message - enter "Keep Outlook Open" as the
subject. Don't enter an address in the To field!
Save the message to Drafts.
Drag it from Drafts to the Outbox.
When you exit Outlook, you'll have the chance to cancel
closing Outlook.
In Outlook 2000 Corp, you'll need a POP3 account in the profile
for this method to work. (It can use fake server names.)
