"2. WHEN OUTLOOK MESSAGES GET STUCK It's probably happened to all of us - you send a message from Outlook and later see that it's still sitting in your Outbox. Other messages, sent before or since will be dispatched but one or more messages just sit there. This problem has been around since Outlook was first released and while it seems rarer in Outlook 2003 it still happens. What can you do? We'll assume there's no problem with your connection and delivery services, as they are whole other topics if such a problem exists. The most common cause of the problem is that you opened the message while it was sitting in the Outbox. This can happen if you are offline or your outgoing mail connection is scheduled. If you want to change or just check a message about to go out you can go to the Outbox, double-click on the message and you can edit it. The trick is that when you save your changes the message status changes and the message won't be sent. Why this hasn't been fixed is anyone's guess - there's KB articles and a long, long list of support calls on the matter yet no sign of a fix. Thankfully the fix is simple - having saved your changed message back to the Outbox - just open it again, click the Send button and it should now go on its merry way across the ether. If it doesn't, and sometimes a message is really stubborn, open up the stuck message and create a new message window. Copy the contents from the stuck message to the new one and send the newly created clone. Delete the stuck message. One other common possibility is if you have multiple email accounts - check the Accounts tag on the toolbar and make sure the message is set to the correct outgoing email account. There's Knowledge Base articles covering some versions of Outlook, but not all. Outlook 2000 http://woodyswatch.com/kb/index.asp?195922 Outlook 98 http://woodyswatch.com/kb/index.asp?182572"; Is this the same problem that Entourage is having?
