When you say "outlook express keeps sending" do you mean you keep receiving
messages sent by another party? Many possible reasons.

Duplicate messages.

For Hotmail, or IMAP accounts:

ToolsOptionsGeneral tab. Uncheck either: When starting, go directly to my
Inbox folder or, Send and receive messages at startup.

For a POP3 account, see:
http://www.insideoe.com/problems/bugs.htm#pop3uidl

Do you have Leave a copy of messages on the server checked? Tools | Accounts
| Mail | Properties | Advanced. Uncheck it.

Turn of e-mail scanning in your anti-virus program. It offers no added
protection and can cause Time-outs. An Anti-Spam program can also be
responsible for this. If that does not resolve the problem, please post the
error message in its entirety.

Do not archive mail in default OE folders. They will eventually become
corrupted. Create your own user defined folders for storing mail and move
your mail to them. Empty Deleted Items folder regularly. Keep user created
folders under 100MB, and Default folders as empty as is feasible.

After you are done, follow up by compacting your folders manually while
working *offline* and do it often.

Click on Outlook Express at the top of the folder tree so no
folders are open. Then: FileWork Offline (or double click Working Online in
the Status Bar). FileFolderCompact all folders. Don't touch anything until
the compacting is completed.

In ToolsOptionsMaintenance: Uncheck Compact messages in background and
leave it unchecked. {N/A if running XP/SP2}.
