Hi All, I'm attempting to send from my Outlook 2003 an email with file attachment (1MB) but the ,mail remains in the outgoing folder. The recipient receives the message (I sent it to another email I own) but on my side the mail remains in the folder listed above. In the send process the Outbox send/Receive progress detail dialogue box indicates that it's processing my request but not completed. Part of the time the following message appears "``Sending and Receiving` reported error (0x8004210B): `The operation timed out waiting for a response from the sending (SMTP) server. If you continue to receive this message, contact your server administrator or Internet service provider (ISP)" I tried to fix the problem by: 1) exit anti-virus prog. (BitDefender) 2) remove and add my POP3 email account. Also performed the "test account settings" and it went well but the problem persists. Can someone assist me? Thanks, Rafael

Did you click on the message in the Outgoing box and try and delete it? Did you install SP2 for Office? Life's more painless for the brainless.

I have a problem that might be related. When I right click a photo and use send to mail recipient, it opens an emil out look window and I enter an address. When I hit send, nothing happens and I find the file in the out box. I can open it and send it from there. This was not always this way, but is is now on all of my computers. Office outlook 2003. A friend has outlook and he can send from the right click.
