I'd suggest to get out of the Outbox, leaving the messages right there where they need to stop on their way out, but issue the command to send email from the Inbox, not while you're in the Outbox. It may be that this isn't supposed to matter, but maybe it does on your system. You can have quirky problems with email, of which this may be one. for example, I use Outlook Express. And, as I'm sure you know, when you press the send command (alt s for me) to send an email you've just finishing creating, it goes to the Outbox. That is a natural stop on the way out. But sometimes, if I go into the Outbox to open that email and change something before I allow it to be sent out, sometimes ONE won't respond correctly if I press Alt S from within that message. It will save "can't say message" or something. Well, this makes no sense,but no problem. I've learned that if I did make some changes and want the email to go out as I've edited it, to jus press control s for save, then press escape to get out of the message and leave it again in the Outbox. Then it doesn't matter whether I press the Send all email command from there or somewhere else. For OE, that command I use is control m, which sends and receives all mail. It's an item on the Tools menu. Hope there's something interesting for you here. so please tell,which email program are you using? That might make a critical difference in how anyone might be able to advise you. thanks. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jane Withers" <pitre4@xxxxxxx> To: <jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Saturday, December 29, 2007 12:02 PM Subject: Re: Problem sending e-mail from outbox folder transfer these messages to inbox with control/shift v and see if that works. ----- Original Message ----- From: john.falter To: jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Saturday, December 29, 2007 12:51 PM Subject: Re: Problem sending e-mail from outbox folder Check for sending errors. ----- Original Message ----- From: addison gethers To: Jaws 2-jfw Sent: Thursday, December 27, 2007 6:10 PM Subject: Problem sending e-mail from outbox folder Hello Anybody, I'm having problem here ,I have 3 e-mail in my outbox folder and try to get it to send and I went to the tool menu and went to send and receive menu then click on all send and receive .
