Are you running Windows XP? If so, look in the Event Log for any error
messages that may be related to Mail.

But it sounds more likely that your DBX file for the Outbox is
corrupted. Use Windows Explorer to navigate to your Message Store
folder and find and delete all instances of "Outbox.dbx" while Outlook
Express is closed. Then when you reopen Outlook Express, a new and
uncorrupted Outbox will be created for you.

When sending an e-mail the e-mail is in deed sent BUT an error message
appears
"Some errore occured while processing the requested task".

There are no errors listed and the sent e-mail then remains in the
outbox
rather then moving to the sent folder as set up to do.

So, the next time I send an e-mail the previous one is sent again as
well as
the new one again producing the error message and more e-mails in the
outbox.

Any ideas ?
