MS Outlook PS #1: Error using Comma as Email Address Separator

Problem:

Receiving error message when using comma as email address separator.

Solution:

Microsoft Office Outlook 2003 and Microsoft Office Outlook 2007 uses, by default, semi-colons to separate email addresses.

You can configure Outlook to recognize the comma as a valid e-mail address separator as follows:

  1. On the Tools menu, click Options....
  2. On the General tab, click E-Mail Options
  3. Click Advanced E-Mail Options
  4. Under When sending a message click to select the Allow comma as address separator check box.
Note: You can still use semi-colon (;) as email address separator.

  1. I know some interesting softwares which work with ms outlook. But only some programs would be really useful. One of them I found out at the Inet. The utility was very effective in my problem and this fact forced me to consider that it could aid for this and other difficult troubles too - importing outlook ost file into outlook.
