Outlook No Longer Needed for Sending Forms in QuickBooks 11.0

Intuit finally noticed that less and less people are using the Microsoft office suite. Sending forms via email is quite cool and a nice time saver, but you had to have outlook installed on your computer to send forms (or send it through QB email which required a subscription). Now in all the 2011 versions, you can setup different kind of email accounts in the send forms preference. Just pick the type of email that you are using, enter your smtp server and away you go. One drawback to this email client is that you will have to provide your password each time you send forms (unlike Outlook). Perhaps that will be fixed in subsequent versions.
