My Outlook 200 won't send emails, they stay in the Outbox

My Outlook 2000 has just stopped sending emails. They just stop in the
Outbox. When I click on Send/Receive it comes up with a window stating all
tasks are successfully completed.

My wife has an email account also on my computer but her's doesn't seem to
be affected.

Hi Dave,

how bis is your "PST" file.

The limit of an Outlook PST file is 2 GB. search on your harddisk for "PST"
and have a look of the size of your PST file.
If the PST file is nearly 2 GB, create an additional PST file, call it
"Archive" and move your old emails from the "Personal Folder" to the new
archive PST file.

Maybe your PST file is damaged. With a freeware tool of Microsoft you can
try to repair the PST file.
