Outlook sending message that don't exist
« on: October 18, 2006, 12:00:49 PM »
Ok so my Outlook keeps trying to send emails (19 of them right now) that are not in my outbox.  Is this a virus of some kind what can I do to stop it, its getting annoying as every time the send fails Outlook pops up a message telling me this fact.

I have 2 different profiles for email one for home one for work and it always wants to send these phantom email via the work profile thus I always get this message at home so I assume that means when I am at work these phantom email are going out??

Any thoughts or suggestions?

I am running Outlook 2003 with SP2

Thanks
