I can't send messages. They stay in my outbox. Why?

[jbriggs]

I just set up my account and every single message that i creat--does not
send. It stays in my outbox. I'm wondering why?

How do I fix this. Also, sent mail when I go into my gmail account--pops
into my outbox in outlook...

please help!

What do you have setup for Send/Receive messages ... always send? Check
your options for Send Receiving mail.

What version of Outlook? If 2002 or 2003, use the Test Account Settings and tell us exactly what the error message is you are receiving.

I don't understand the problem as written - mail sent via outlook for your
gmail account will stay in outlook, not be uploaded to the gmail server.
