More and more often when I send an e-mail it gets "stuck"
in the send file. It just sits there, and I have to move
it back to another file, and then "resend". Sometimes it
works, sometimes not. It just seesm to affect 1 e-mail at
a time.

Suggestions?
 
Hi Craig

I'm missing a little info here.
There are a number of possibilities
1: Are you on an exchange server?
If yes - it might simply be that your exchange server is experiencing difficulties.
Try to do the following
start > run > cmd > tracert [enter exchange server name]
that will tell you where the server has problems

2: Are you using OL2002 by any chance
If yes try the following
1: Tools > Mailbox Cleanu
2: Delete sent item
3: Tools >Options > Mail Setup >(Check that send immediately when connected is checked) Send/Receive > (check that it is set to send receive every minute)
It may also be that you simply need to delete all those old sent items

I hope this helps
If this doesn't work let me know which version of >Outlook you are using, how you are connecting to your mail and the results of your tracert
