Default Email MailMerge with Word using Excel database

I'm using Office XP. I opened Word for MailMerge, an Excel database for the
name and email address, and the MailMerge Wizard. I went through all the
steps, everything seemed to work well, but when I got to the last step and
hit Electronic Mail to merge to Outlook it appeared to merge. However, each
time I looked i my Outlook outbox nothing was there. I have Outlook set to
use Word and set the format for HTML. With those settings nothing happened.
However, if I set Outlook to not use Word and set for plain text it would
merge, but only allow one email at a time after a little pop up message
cautioned that another program was trying to use this. This was very
combersome and defeated to purpose of using MailMerge. Any ideas?
