Outlook Trying To Send A Message

chateauneufdupape

Outlook is trying to send a message but I don't know what it is. Nothing is showing in the outbox. Is it a read receipt? I have turned off the automatic return receipts but that has not cleared it. The message is trying to send via an old account that I only use for incoming messages. Because I use a different service provider, the message won't send. If I connected to the old service provider, I am sure that it would send. However, I don't wan't to do this because it would involve scrambling around with a load of wires and also I am concerned because I don't know what it is. Any thoughts how to stop this message trying to send every time I connect?

Have you checked what messages are waiting in the "Outbox"?

Nothing is showing in the outbox.

possibly a virus trying to mail itself?

I have Kaspersky Internet security which checks mail and has not shown anything.

I had a similar problem some time ago and it was solved when I deleted the problem account after copying down the settings then adding the account back from scratch.

Never found out what the problem was though

There is a post on Yahoo Answers that suggests it could be a 'read receipt' that outlook is trying to send and is unable to.
