outlook 7 sending email is sent to outbox and remains there

[Gilbert J. Fitzsimmons]

When I post an email to be sent, it is posted in the "outbox" folder where it
remains. Sometimes, in experimenting, I have "clicked and moved" the message
from the outbox to the "sent" folder. Sometimes the message is then sent.
How do I direct the "send" message to immediately send the email and not to
move it to the "outbox" folder? In the "tools" "option" file, is there such
a place to make this correction?

That should not be an issue to begin with. This issue is often caused by
having a virus scanner integrated with Outlook. Uninstall this integration
part of your virus scanner and try again; you'd still be sufficiently
protected by your on-access
scanner part of the virus scanner. For more details see;
