My MS Outlook shows 2 Unsent messages in the Outbox Folder. When I do a send/receive it tells me that send/recieve is complete but 2 unsent messages still appear next to the outbox. If I open the Outbox it tells me that there are "No items to show" and the messages do not show in my Sent Items folder. I can still send receive emails as normal and have tried closing down and rebooting but with no success.

Any Ideas?

2 unsent messages still appear next to the outbox

How do you mean? Are you saying that you hit send/recieve and the messages get sent but neither appear in the sent items or the outbox?

After having hit send/recieve they disappear from my outbox, (Outlook reports send/recieve complete) but they do not then appear in my sent folder and a number still appears next to my outbox folder. The recipients tell me they haven't recieved them. It's a mystery!

Thanks for your help

Do you have several mail accounts configured in Outlook Express? This issue sounds like the messages were created from a mail account that isn't included in the Send/Receive command. You can check this by going to Tools > Accounts > Mail (tab) and checking the properties of each account listed.

Are we talking about Outlook or Outlook Express here?

Ooops, sorry, I misread the post

If it's Outlook, is this on a home PC or is it connected to a network with an email server in an office?

Single email address configured in Outlook - home PC not connected to any network.
