Windows Keyboard Shortcut of the Day

Ctrl+Enter: Send e-mail

Posted in Microsoft Outlook by estephen on June 11th, 2007

It’s Microsoft Outlook week this week.

To start things off, when sending e-mail, don’t bother clicking on that “Send” button — press Ctrl+Enter to send. You’ll need to confirm with a dialog box the first time.

(Note that this will work with many other e-mail programs as well.)

    Is there any way to *disable* CTRL-ENTER as a send shortcut?

    I am generally a big fan of shortcuts, but because I have wandering fingers I have on more than one occasion sent emails on accident and I can’t have that happen at work anymore. Does anyone have an answer for the above question - can you disable the “send” shortcuts?
