Messages That Just Stick In The Outbox

My version is: Version 2008 [Build 12.0.1606]
Yes, that version, WLM 12 is, overall, probably the better one. I think you
were wise to stick with it.
Not sure but mine appears to be older version than yours but Microsoft
Update hasn't offered any newer version to me.
Right. I think they are being wisely cautious at Microsoft Windows Update.
Actually I have not switched from OE as I use either one, with OE as the
default program for eml and nws messages. WLM took my defaults away even
when I told it not to, but I snatched them back. Seems to work for me
having both available. I use WLM mostly for hotmail although not
exclusively so.
That's basically what I'm doing as well. I've made OE6 my default program
for eml and nws messages and just use WLM 14 for experiments.
It's interesting that you don't have this "messages sticking in the outbox"
problem in WLM 12. As far as I can recall. I don't believe I did either.
My WLM works as OE does and holds the message in the Out box until I send
It. [Doug W.]
So that appears to be another bug in WLM 14 that WLM 12 does NOT have.

Interesting.
No...
I'm using the newest version of WLM, 14.0.8050.1202...
Which admittedly miraculously went from bug-plagued beta to supposedly
finished RTW version overnight.
Which version of WLM are you using and when did you switch from OE?
N. B. I'm sending this from Outlook Express, because it's more reliable.

O.K.
Good...
We've now established that the...
"Send this message later, when I trigger it to be sent, rather than
immediately"...
Function...
So useful in Outlook Express...
Has been botched, excised and eliminated in Windows Live Mail --
allegedly out of some loony belief that the send functions
in WLM needed to be "Regularized".
There they go again...
So they've introduced a New Bug in WLM.
