I have never had a problem sending & or receiving e-mail prior to the past few days. All of a sudden the Send button has disappeared and my address list on the left side has disappeared too. I did find some help which suggested opening the Write and then press F9 to retrieve the address list. The address list returned on the left but does not appear as it used to ie. full length of the screen. However what is now there will be satisfactory. The "Send " button is still missing which is frustrating as I have not been able to send any e-mails for approximately a week now. Would appreciate advice as to how to retrieve the above. Thank you.

Open a Write window. Do you have any of the Composition Toolbar with Send-Spelling-Attach etc? If not go to the Menu Bar and select View-Toolbars and turn it back on. If you are also missing the Menu Bar with View on it, press the alt key to make it appear and then turn the missing toolbars on.

If you have some of the Composition Toolbar but are just missing the Send button, right click the toolbar and select Customize. Find the Send button in the dialog box that opens and drag it back into place.

Thank you for your advice re: the SEND button having disappeared and also the address list on the left side having disappeared. I must confess that I was not able to get it back myself. This a.m. my computer would not turn on at all. I therefore contacted the company which services it, namely iTOK and a technician read your suggestions and after a bit of manipulation of various things he got them both back. It seems that I had not noticed the "press the alt key" as part of it due to the fact that the 'alt key' was not 'ALT key'. My fault for skimming too quickly. Thanks again for your advice...it worked and now i am back on track.

The ALT key or F10 reveals hidden toolbars in most applications. This is a good thing to keep in your mental toolbox for the future. Glad you are back working.
