I want to send email to a large group (700) using mail merge and don't want a copy of each email saved to my sent items folder. I've experimented with a small number of emails and turned off the option to Save copies in Sent Items folder in Outlook. However, copies of the sent items are still being saved. I have tried this in both Office (Word/Outlook) 2000 and Office (Word/Outlook) 2003 and have the same results. How do I turn off this option for the mail merge? Normally I want it on for my records.
 
I don't think you can turn it off for mail merge, which goes through a
slightly different sending mechanism. It should be easy enough, though, to
filter the folder by the subject of your merge messages, select all, and
delete.
