I know this is a tip/trick, but I can't find the solution...

I have some messages sitting in outbox folder of Outlook 2002. I am in "Work Offline" mode and not connected to network with exchange server. I keep getting popups indicating Outlook is trying to connect to Exchange Server.

The problem isn't the message itself. The problem is that the message becomes the "Active Window" so if I am typing in one window, I have to ALT-TAB to get back to the window I was working in.

Any way to change this "Take over active window" behavior in Windows XP Pro?

Thanks,
JMC
