Can send mail only from one of 2 accounts?

Here's the situation. Using Outlook 2003 to access 2 different email addreses
going to the same POP3 [non-Excgange server].

Account "account1" has been there since Outlook was set up and is on one
domain (call it mail1.com). "Account2" on domain (call it mail2.com) was
added recently. Both access the pop3 server mail.mail1.com.

Both were working fine. Then at one point from the account1 account, the
user could not send a message, but could with account2. [reminder that both
accounts access the same mail server]. Send a second message via account1 and
it also gets stuck. Outlook says it's a timeout problem.

Reboot the PC, delete the message in the Outbox. Create a new message and
now the user can send messages.

Ideas?

The exact text of the errors would be a help.

It times out. If I reboot the PC everything is back to normal as mentioned
above - except that one message.
