Default e-mail sent but not rec'd

It is neither one. Is it possible my home and student version of word is not
compatible with outlook?

Open Outlook Express - is the message in the SENT ITEMS folder or the OUTBOX
folder?

If the former, it has been sent; if the latter, it is waiting to be sent.

Now I am confused. Have you got Outlook? Why are you trying to use Outlook
Express then?

Default e-mail sent but not rec'd

The Home and Student version of Office 2007 does not include Outlook and
will not use Outlook Express, so perhaps we should find out what version the
OP has.

Default e-mail sent but not rec'd

In that case you should both (a) have Outlook (available if not installed)
and (b) have no problem using OE (I send mail to OE from Word all the time).
