I have a problem when usin outlook, it does not seem to send any messages when i press send and just stores them in the outbox, what could the problem be??

I'm not sure how to solve your problem exactly, but having a quick look in OE there was a few options -

Make sure you have entered your email account information properly under Tools - Accounts.

Under Tools - Options, click the Send tab make sure "Send Messages Immediately" is checked.

yeah those optionsa are correct, i recieve messages from the account fine it is just sending that causes a problem

Just had another look, one more possible cause -

If you are working in offline mode, sent emails are stored in your Outbox. At the bottom of OE there is a small picture of a computer, make sure you are working online by double clicking it, to make it say Working Online
