Microsoft Outlook.
WTF is that and HTF do you do anything with it, and WTF is it supposed to do.

I didn't know. And still don't......
The internet is full of stuff on this, but there is no clear explanation of what it is or what it should do or how you do anything with it.

But I had a go
Microsoft Outlook: what is that ( using manually )
You would normally get the software to run on its own ( visible as it were ) in a similar way to which you might get Word or Excel to start, for example
Find it single click on it:

Make a Desktop icon from a Copy/ paste and double click on it :

The first time you try to open it with a click or two, a set up starts.

The main use of the Outlook software is to do Email stuff, so usually you will have at least one Email account “registered in it” You can do this at the set up or later.
I had a go,
the start was OK:

These following steps took me a few hours of Emails, Internet surfing and annoying Telephone calls to my Internet provider before I

Code:

Every time I open Microsoft Outlook after that I get a pop up : could not connect to the server secureimap t online.JPG : https://imgur.com/UqEZtQe
Code:
Es Konnte keine Verbindung zum Server hergestellt werden. secureimap.t-online.de befindet sich jetzt im Offlinemodus

It could not connect to the server. secureimap.t-online.de is now in offline mode
So I am still none the wiser, but It is worth doing all that anyway as you may need some of that information later in one or more of the ways to send an Email using VBA.
