Microsoft Outlook 2007 sending problem

I've had a problem when sometimes sending an email with an attachment.
It shows as still in the outbox when infact it has sent multiple times already, yet it never shows in the sent box.
Not only is this annoying to me, but to people on the receiving end, its really annoying !

It isn't happening all the time.

Can anyone tell me what I can do to stop this ?

Cheers

    What's your ISP/smtp server? What's typical size, does it happen only above a certain size or any size of attachment?

    Has happened twice I think.
    Both times when forwarding, one a powerpoint file (less than 1mb), one a video file (maybe 3mb).

    My ISP is Zen. Not sure what smtp is ?

    It never used to happen with Outlook Express. Only since I have been using Outlook 2007, for about a month now.

    I found its a common problem with Outlook 2007. It seems the problem lies with the contacts folder.
    If you hand type an email address its fine, but when choosing from your contacts that when the problem occurs.

  • Hi I also had a similar problem with my Outlook, I recently found a great tech support site that help with this kind of problem. Here is the page for Office 2007 support.
