PLEASE HELP - Messages getting stuck in Outbox!
« on: February 16, 2006, 08:07:12 AM »
Someone, please help me - this is my last hope!  I am having a problem with my Outlook Express.  When I send an e-mail, it automatically sends, but then sits in my Outbox instead of moving to "Sent Items."  I have looked at my options, and it does not seem to help.  When the "Save sent items to Sent Items folder" is checked, it does as I am saying.  When it is not checked, it works normally but does not save to my Sent Items folder.  I want it to send immediatley, then save to my Sent Items.  Please help me with this!

Thanks!

Sounds like a faulty OE installation.  You probably need to reinstall.  Better yet, ditch OE and either get the full blown version of Outlook, or if you want something for free try Thunderbird.
Only able to visit the forums sporadically, sorry.

    Tick the 'Save copy of sent messages in the sent items folder' box.
    Tick the 'Send messages immediately' box.
