Re: Error Msg trying to send internet email

Hi Peter,

Well, wish me luck, the following does not look easy ....by the way, for my
Contacts, the EXPORT feature is missing from the File menu. I would be
happy to just print out my Contacts, but I can't see that option either.
How can I export, copy or print them out?

Thank you !
