With Outlook Express, I'd click on a mailto link, a window would open,
and when I'd click on the send button, the email would be sent.

With Outlook 2007, this does not happen and I'd like it to. I have to
open Outlook itself and press send/receive ( I assume send all would
work too) to send. Emails do go immediately if Outlook itself is open.

Can I change this to the OE way?

No. Outlook must be running in order for the mail transport to function.

No one else sees this behavior. Provide details.

I have also found out that automatic send/receive does not work if
Outlook is minimised (to the system bar - with the clock in my case).

In general, this is untrue. If it doesn't work for you, then you have
something wrong. It works for most people.

Not even close to what what you original claim was. This is behavior as
designed.

I click on a mailto link whilst Outlook is not loaded. A new mail
compose window appears, mail is composed and then 'send' is clicked.

At that stage, Outlook express would send the email. With Outlook, the
email stays in the Outbox and is only sent when Outlook is loaded and
a 'send' command is given.

Cheers,

Guy

Hardly. In your first post, you said Outlook was minimized to the systray.
In you second you said it wasn't loaded. Not at all the same.
