SUMMARY
Using Microsoft Outlook 98 with Microsoft Internet Explorer, you can send a viewable Web page with active links to others who use Outlook, Microsoft Outlook Express, or another HTML-aware e-mail program.



MORE INFORMATION
To send a Web page in your e-mail message, Outlook must be the default e- mail program, you must use HTML as the default message format, and you must enable "Send Pictures from the Internet" in the message you send.

Select "Send Pictures from the Internet"
