When I generate mailmerge emails through Word and Outlook (normally scanned by Norton) - the emails are apparently being sent, but are not arriving. When I generate an email from outlook, or send to from Word, there is no problem. Mailmerging emails from Word seems to have broken down! All help welcome. (I'm posting this on the Outlook section as well.)

Are you using the same versions of Word and Outlook?

Yes I am - Office 2003, and I've previously been able to do this ok. Mailmerging text (non email is fine).

I'm having the same problem with Word/Outlook 2003. Mailmerge works fine to new document or printer. But when I try to merge to e-mail (Outlook), nothing happens. Does Outlook have to be open? Can it be open and minimized? Can't imagine a 'no' to either question. This is one of those frustrating problems that works sometimes, but not predictably. Is there any special configuration needed for Outlook to work with a merge? I'm obviously doing it right on some attempts, but can't identify what's missing when it doesn't work - a more frequent outcome.
I regularly use Outlook Express on the same system, but when starting Outlook before doing a merge to e-mail, Outlook asks if I want it to be the default and the answer is 'yes'.
Office 2003: Word for merge, Excel for database, and Outlook for e-mail connection. Win 2000 system.

I may be able to answer my own question! Based on another post, went to IE Tools-Internet Options-Programs tab and changed E-mail list setting from Outlook Express to Outllook. After that change, the merge e-mails went out as expected. Hopefully, not a random success.
