Posponing delivery of an email message

[Delbert]

One of my users here is trying to send an email and wanted to pospone it on a
later date. He stated that it used to worked before where if he sets up a
delayed delivery for this email, click on send & it goes directly to his SENT
folder and it says on the email that it will be delivered on the date he
specified. But now, when he does it sends to his Outbox folder and would not
allow him to shutdown Outlook not unless he delivers his mail in his Outbox.

Details:
Outlook 2003/WinXP - His email is setup to read on the exchange server side,
his email storage cap has not exceeded. Not sure on why this one is no longer
working but is there any possible way to get this back where it shoots
directly to his SENT folder rather his Outbox? Please advice. Thanks.

It will indeed hang in the Outbox because it hasn't been sent yet. When he
closes Outlook he will only be prompted that there are still messages in his
Outbox and if he wants to close Outlook anyway.

He said before it shoots directly to his Sent items folder, not Outbox. Also
he can close outlook then that delayed message was still being sent out to
the specified date/time of the email.

Thanks.
