It does not seem to matter where OE is open or not, It only sends when you close OE Rbase continues to operate correctly, but on closing gives you a ' Rbase has encountered a problem & needs to close' message.

Dick, The MapiMail4.rbl Plugin is intended to send a message directly through your email client program. However, you may need to adjust the settings of the default email client (Outlook in your case) to allow outgoing e-mails without being queued. If that becomes an issue or inconvenience, you may consider R:Mail 2.6 or R:Mail 3.0 to totally automate everything! http://www.rbase.com/products/rmail/ http://www.rbase.com/products/rmail30/ Very Best R:egards, Razzak.
