Repeated sending from Outlook 2007
 

Several times recently I have sent an email with attachments that sits in my
Outbox as if its not being sent but is actually being sent repeatedly, much
to the annoyance of the recipient. Any ideas?

Do you receive an error at the end of the sending process? It might be that
Outlook doesn't 'think' it's been successful at sending the item

It just keeps doing a send and receive but not removing the item from the
Outbox - btw i'm using Vista Business. No error message and it only seems to
happen with large attachments.

Does your SMTP (outgoing mail server) allow attachments that large to be
sent?

I have no problem like this with Outlook 2003 on XP. Its only since I
upgraded.

Odd... I wonder if logging the SMTP conversation might help:

1) DIsable all mail scanning by your antivirus program.
2) Lengthen the server tiomeout value on the Advanced tab of your account
properties.
3) Lenghten the send/receive interval.

Enable diagnostic logging and see what's happening during the send:
