I think tit's a kde bug, but perhaps one that affects different systems in different ways. I my case I occasionally get messages stuck in the outbox, but they almost always go if I 'send queued messages'. Just occasionally I have to close kmail and restart it. I normally leave kmail open and polling for messages all night, and some mornings I find that it is better to re-start it - presumably so that it can do housekeeping. HTH Anne
