I cannot send email from my outlook account. When I try to send something it shows going to the outbox, connecting, and sending. It also copies the message to the sent messages file. I can receive email fine. I have 8 other computers using the same inbound and outbound servers, but I am having a problem with this one computer.
 
What version of Outlook? What sort of mail account(s)? Do you get any
error messages? If the message is being moved to Sent Items, it is indeed
being sent, so something else is going on...

They are POP3 mail accounts through my local cable internet supplier. I am not getting any error messages. I am using Microsoft Outlook 6.
 
If you are not getting any error messages and the message is being moved to
sent items, then Outlook Express (which is what you're using, *not* Outlook,
which is part of the Microsoft Office system) successfully submitted the
message to the outgoing server. The problem lies elsewhere - perhaps some
spam filters on the server or your recipients' computer deleted your
message.

If you want to follow up, you should go to the Outlook Express newsgroup:
