Ascii2 Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 An associate of min has tried to send emails from Outlook 2007 (with SP2), but on attempt to send the messages, the messages got stuck in the Outbox. This happened on Windows Vista Home. I nor my associate not very familiar with Windows Vista or Outlook 2007.I have tried deleting the messages in Outbox and resending. Messages were only deleteable when Working Offline and resending cannot be done (messages get stuck again).What could be done to have Outlook 2007 send messages instead of retaining them in Outbox?

Martin L Posted October 10, 2009 Share Posted October 10, 2009 Are you sure you have the correct server for outgoing email in your profile? Extra=>Options=>E-mail settings (tab)=>E-mail accounts=>Choose the profile and change it into the correct SMTP server. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ascii2 Posted October 10, 2009 Author Share Posted October 10, 2009 The problem has been corrected.A different Internet Service provider was being used (AT&T) from one that was being used before.Using a different port for outgoing mail allowed mail to send agian.It appears that AT&T may block the port previously used for outgoing mail. I fould no official statement as to what ports AT&T blocks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
