I seem to be having a strange outlook problem. I've got two email accounts, one of which works fine, but the other will recieve but not send. It goes through the whole send/recieve thing just fine, and a copy of the message I sent is in the sent items box, but the recipient never recieves the email. ( even if I send to another email adress in the same domain ). I tried using the same account with the same setup on another computer, and it worked just fine. Recipents of the emails did recieve them. Anyone have any idea what this could be? I've already run the outlook repair tool and updated to the latest service pack.

Please someone help!

might want to go to the cmd prompts and type ipconfig /dnsflush, it might be caching the DNS of the other account for some reason...other than that i would double check the mail server settings...

I already tried to flush the dns and reinstall my tcp/ip stack, and i've checked the mail server settings. To give a little more background info, I recently switched my domain to a new server, and before all the new dns information propagated to my dns server I just added a route in my hosts file to the new server. It seems like that is when the problem started, but i've removed that route out of hosts file since then.
