    Sending Issue from Outlook 2010 release


    Hi,

    Having a strange, intermittent issue with sending mail from Outlook 2010. Every now and again when sending a mail, when you check the "outbox", the mail says there is no date to send the mail, it is marked as "none". The mail will remain there until it is deleted, restart Outlook and re-create the mail.

    Any suggestions?

    TIA

    I've never known outbox to have a date on it...
    I thought email in Outlook was either stamped when it was received or stamped when it's sent...
    While in the Outbox, it's in "limbo"...
    I think it's a security feature that allows won't allow people to print something like it was sent when it actually wasn't....

    I've used Outlook from 97 to 2010 and never remember a date being part of it...

    Keith, are you configured for POP 3 Mail?

    similar problem


    I have a similar problem using Windows 7 and Outlook 2010.
    I can identify the cause but not the solution!

    I use a laptop - but the ISP at home and work are not the same. At both locations I need to be able to send and receive emails - but do not know how to ensure that the outgoing emails are automatically sent through the right SMTP account for my location. Too often I click reply and forget to check and change the sending account. Previously I could just edit the sending account and then resend the message and it would just go. Recently it sticks in my outbox and show the Sent: none and I now have to delete it and recreate the message for it to go. So if sending fails what must I do to send the same message without recreating it.

    Solution




    No one answered but I finally found a solution to my problem (at least on Office 2010):

    Drag failed email from Outbox folder to Drafts folder on Outlook

    Now you can double-click the message to edit the failed sending account

    I just use the From pulldown to select the correct sending account

    Now click Send and it should go OK


    Now all I need is a rule to try the alternatives automatically or at least pop up a menu!

    The Mac is much better because if sending fails it automatically pops up a window to allow an alternative account/server to be selected.
