Look at your email options, obviously you have HTML emails enabled. Most folks
do not; preferring to receive email as plain text. HTML code can be manipulated
in nasty ways.

Right, I've been reading like crazy. Ok, let's go backwards from the result.
Here's the goal...
I simply want to send a sharp looking email. (Kinda like the Publisher
templates!)
And... well, it'd be kinda nice to figure out why this won't work, but...
let's see if there is a workaround.
I don't want folks to see images/dynamic text/?? I don't want them to have
to open an attachment or anything like that.
Ok, kinda like when Microsoft sends me an email newsletter regarding Office.
It looks sharp, it's colorful, it's neat, it directs my attention to certain
areas, it's clean. What does it take for me to do that?
We're also looking to do city emails/updates city wide for
events/newsletter. So I really need to figure out what's going on.
Thanks Again Mary!

When you try to send a Publisher file as a page, Publisher will change it
into a
HTML file or an image file. It will arrive as a bunch of attachments if your
recipients have disabled HTML emails. You are so much better off converting
the
Publisher file to a PDF. There are free converters around. Many folks here
recommend www.primopdf.com
If you must send a HTML email, compose it in Outlook.

Wow!! Thanks for the quick response!!
Both are 2003, all updates are current, Windows One Care is the
anti-virus/firewall (I would assume this isn't a factor to the solution),
SP3, let's see what else can I think of...I did download a "trial" of
Office
2007, but I went back to 2003. Again, I would assume that shouldn't be a
factor?!?!? Outlook is set as the "default" for email editing. I also have
a
Microsoft Office Live "Essentials" Account.
Ok, I think that's all the details that might contribute to the problem!
My options are to send the page as an attachment or send it as a page. I
took the time to make a sharp looking publisher with graphics (I made sure
to
resize them :-), hyperlinks, and all the info about the Softball League...
so
I'd really like to send it as the page & NOT as an attachment. When I did
click "send page as attachment", Outlook opens just fine and i can send it.
But when I attempt "send as page" it doesn't work at all. I thought for a
minute that it didn't like the page that I made, so I even tried to send as
page on one of Publisher's email templates to make sure all the graphics
were
the right size.
What am I missing?
THANKS SOOOO STINKIN' MUCH FOR THE HELP!!!

Is it allowing Publisher to create emails?

When I attempt to "Send Page as Email", I get the following...
"Publisher could not start the email program. Check your network
connections. Make sure office is installed correctly, your email program
is
set up correctly, and that you can connect to your email server."
I'm sitting here on my laptop in my house with both Outlook 2003 &
Publisher
open and working just fine. Outlook is sending/receiving emails just
fine,
but Publisher "Can't connect"?
What's the deal?
