Outlook Express Problem

Will P. · 07-17-2008, 11:06 AM

I have recently aquired a problem that when I send a one item email, that it sends 2-3 copies of it to the same person. After entering send, I get a warning message box, that says some problems occuried trying to send it.
Under details there is nothing in it. No details.

It is sending the email to my Out Box. If I don't do anything with it, it will send the mail out about every 15 minutes all day long.

If I send it from the Out Box is when it sends 2-3 mails.

Also , after it has sent the mail, nothing is placed in the Sent Folder.

I have tried everything, removed IE 7 & Outlook Exp. and redown loaded it.
Still the same problem. Have run multiple scans / Spybot S&D, Adaware,
Counter Spy, and 3 different Full Sys Scans / Panda, Norton, Kaspersky.

I think some how something is corrupted in the Registry but I don't have a clue as to where to look or what to do when I get there.

You Guru's here, have always been able to help in the past. Hope you can Help.

Thanks, Will

Found my answer to my problem. Read in archives that I should try compacting my
local folders. Did that, and my problem was solved.

Days ago I dumped temp files , cookies, trash bin etc.
