That the message moved to the Sent Items means that OE got confirmation
from the mail server that it accepted the message. However, if your
anti-virus is set to scan outgoing mail, it impersonates the mail server
and may have told OE that the message was accepted when it is still in
the anti-virus program. In that case, you should disable outgoing
scanning.

With some anti-virus (and anti-spam) programs, simply disabling the
e-mail scanning function doesn't really disable it. It simply tells the
program not to flag any messages. It still processes all the messages
and may still cause send/receive failures. What you may need to do is
uninstall the anti-virus program, then reinstall it using a custom
install option and unselect the e-mail scanning component for
installation.

Please help, i don't know what's happening to Microsoft Outlook
Express. I
have confirmed to my internet provider that the connection is working
well,
they told me that the problem is probably with the Outlook Express.
When I
send an email, it seems that everything's ok because the email sent
was moved
to sent folders. However, when I check with the receipient if whether
they
receive my emails, it was not received. I have tried it many times but
the
problem is still there. How come my email was moved to sent folder
when it
was not really sent anyway? Would appreciate your help. Thank you so
much
and God bless!
