Now that you've written your E-mail message and you know it's ready to go - addressed properly, useful Subject line, the body of the message is clear and free of typos - you're ready to send it. Sending an E-mail is really simple and usually consists of one big step: click that Send button in the E-mail message you've just written, there it is. This sends the message to the Outbox where it either goes out right away or it sits and awaits your manually sending it out later. In another lesson we'll talk about how to automate your Send procedure, but for now we'll assume the message goes out right away just a second or two after you click that Send button. Once you do that and your E-mail is sent - I'll hit the Send button now; you'll see it briefly go to the Outbox, there it was and now it's gone. Once it's sent, though, it goes to the Sent Items folder where you can review your Sent Messages at any time, so I'll click Send Items and there we see the message that we just sent and it's selected and we can see its content in the Reading Pane. You can check them there to see what you said in an E-mail or if you need to send the message again, say to someone who you meant to include in the To or Cc box the first time the message was sent and now all you'd have to do is click on it in the list as I have here and you could Forward that message. You'll learn more about Forwarding messages in another lesson. Now, if your mail doesn't go out immediately you can choose Send All from the Send Receive tab which does go to the Outbox and sends everything in it. There's the Send All button. You could also click Send Receive Groups and choose your account, the one you used to send this or to write this message originally and if you just click Inbox it will do a Send and Receive for that user that will include receiving new messages, a topic we'll discuss in another lesson, but it will also send anything that's in the Outbox. So, it's just one extra click and all your mail is on its way to the intended recipients. Easy.
