I've got Vista and there is a great utility to help with mail getting stuck
in the outbox. Tom Koch's had posted a great fix for this: go to
http://www.oehelp.com/smutil/ and download the WMUtil Version 1.51 Updated
5/4/07 to your desktop. Since I've done this I haven't had any problems.
Instructions are on the website. Good luck!
