<\/a><\/p>\nMy outlook mail has been broken since this morning when Microsoft seems to have sent some kind of update. I now have to exit Outlook, use Task manager to really kill it, then open outlook again to get it to send anything. It limps along as if it works, but it doesn\u2019t. Also my accounts are now called jerryp@jerrypournelledotcom which is not the way I entered them nor have they been that way until \u2013 well I don\u2019t know when it changed. <\/p>\n
I can still get my mail, but I have to do things to get it. You can send and I\u2019ll get it, but when I send mail it stacks up in my outbox until I exit and kill outlook then reopen it again. I am hoping to be able to find the message that seems to be stuck in my account but I am having trouble finding it. Ah well.<\/p>\n
I kept playing with this, sending test messages and shutting down and restarting outlook, and Lo! a few minutes ago it stopped being stuck with the last message. I have no idea whether this \u2018cure\u2019 worked or what was done, but test messages now come through fast. We\u2019ll see. Meanwhile it is bed time. Apologies. <\/p>\n
