I have a Lenovo X60t, Windows XP Tablet, Outlook 2003 working off of an
Exchange Server 2003.

When I'm in a file in Windows Journal and I click on "Send to mail
recipient", more often than not (in fact most of the time) it now says "The
operation failed". It never did this before. Any thoughts on this?

Typically happens when Outlook.exe is still open from a previous session
that you believe to be closed. This can happen for many reasons but most of
the time it's because of a faulty add-in. You can grab a utility called
"KnockOut" (just a simple .exe that you run and it sits in your taskbar)
that will notify you when Outlook is *really* open or closed. In the
meantime however, when you get this message, check the task manager
(CTL+ALT+DEL) and make sure that any instances of Outlook.exe are gone.

Troubleshooting which addin is causing the problem may be time consuming
however. Usually you just have to disable them one by one and try it. But
some addins don't exhibit the problem until after some time of use.

I think that's it because ususally the first time I try it it works fine but
then gives me problems on subsequent tries
