    I'm wondering if saving all my info and settings then un-installing and re-installing would help get the sent mail function back. I'd rather not at the moment but may be forced to ?

    Exactly and it's not the end of the world it's just that my sent messages are sitting in an Outbox that will keep growing.

    Alan, you are not alone apparently. Have a look at some of the replies on THIS thread:

    Well, further to my previous post, I have followed other thread advice and remove (backup first!) all the files under my profile. 'C:\document and setting \ %myprofile%\application data\microsoft\outlook '. restarted outlook, which created 2 files: "outcmd.dat" and "Outlook.srs" under my profile directory.

    And now outlook seem to work accordingly, which is send email from the outbox....

    Have you tried running scanpst.exe on your outlook PST file? That can solve alot of issues pertaining to Outlook problems. Just make sure to back up your pst file first.
