Hi Jennifer,

I just transferred your message to another mailbox and it moved it.  I then 
transferred it back to this mailbox and it moved it.
I also transferred a message from the out box to another mail box and then 
transferred it back to the out box and it did not put it in a queue, but it 
did show the message as "sent and redirected."

This machine is running Windows 2000 and I am also using Window-Eyes 5 beta 2.
The way I transfer message is to use the Application key which brings up 
the context menu, hit t for transfer and then arrow to the box I want.

I am curious, so I will try this at home where I am running XP SP2 Home 
edition and see if that makes a difference.

Richard
