Help, Son is on Vacation and I need help with Outbox...

Help, my son who is my computer support is on vacation and I need help now...
I'm beginning to dislike Vista... This is the second problem I've had with
Vista... All the emails I try to send go to my Outbox instead of being
sent... I've checked with the persons that I'm emailing and they don't get
the emails... I've tried sending the emails from the outbox but no luck...
Hope someone can help me... Hope I picked the right Discussion Group...

Open windows Mail, At the top of the screen select Tools, then the tab
att he top that says Send....make sure "Send Messages Immediately" box
is checked....then hit Apply and then OK........

If you have a stuck mail in your Outbox that is preventing you from sending
e-mails, there is a utility written by Steve Cochran that can remove this stuck
message and you will be able to send again.

You probably have Windows Live mail, go to Tools, Options, Send, and check
Send messages immediately, OK

Hey Ray,

Your right, but it's already checked but I hit O.K. anyway... Then tried to
send an email and it went right to my outbox... You know I never get the
message back that it doesn't go to the emailed contact... I only know this
because I call them on the phone to check if they got it... Could this be my
provider's problem???

Me again,

Are you using Windows Mail or Windows Live Mail (look at the title bar in the
upper left corner of the window)?

This really sounds like a very, very common problem with WINDOWS MAIL and
Steve's utility will fix you up. Just be sure to read and follow the
instructions carefully.

Hey Cal,

It says Window Mail... Called my son at the Outer Banks (what 20 year likes
when his Mom calls with a computer question while he's on vacation Ha-Ha),
says we do have Window Mail, he also had me see if "immediately send" was
checked and it is...

He's a little concerned that I'll be won't be able to follow Steve Cockran
utility program, so I think I'll let my husband do it... Then Mom's off the
hook if something gets messed up... I think go walk the dog to clear my
head!!!
