Hi,

In order to send e-mail messages from Word, you must have at least one
e-mail account configured in Office Outlook or a different MAPI (Messaging
Application Program Interface) application, and Outlook or the MAPI
application must be open. Also, if you have more than one e-mail account
configured, you should select the default e-mail account that will be used to
send your e-mail messages.

To configure a default e-mail account in Outlook for Word 2007, open Outlook
2007. On the Tools menu, click Account Settings. In the Account Settings
dialog box, if you have more than one e-mail account in the list, you can set
one of the accounts as the default account for sending messages by selecting
it and clicking Set as Default. If you do not have any e-mail account
configured, click Close and follow the instructions in the Microsoft help
topic Add or Remove an E-Mail Account
(http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/ou...316341033.aspx) to set up and
configure an e-mail account.

To configure a default e-mail account in Outlook for Word 2003, open Outlook
2003. On the Tools menu, click E-mail Accounts, and on the first page of the
E-mail Accounts wizard, select View or change existing e-mail accounts and
click Next. On the page that appears, if you have more than one e-mail
account in the list, you can use the Move Up and Move Down buttons to place
the e-mail account that you want to use to send messages at the top of the
list and then click Finish. If you do not have any e-mail account configured,
click Finish and follow the instructions in the Microsoft help topic Add or
Remove an E-Mail Account
(http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/ou...760001033.aspx) to set up and
configure an e-mail account.
