Thanks for the confirmation and the suggestion.

I think I will programmatically initiate a send/receive myself (ie in
addition to the scheduled ones) every two hours or something. Then I will be
able to use the onerror event to see if any emails haven't gone.

Best regards

Although any code that touches the item in Outbox or even handles
Outlook.Items will end up aborting the send on that item. You have to be
real careful of touching items using code that have been submitted to the
mail transport.

What about using a piece of code that calculates how long a mail has been
sitting in your outbox, and if it is over a specified value (depending
upon
how often your send/receive is configured) then launch a messagebox. You
can
then use a timer (initiated upon launching Outlook) or something to run
this
routine every so often.
