Another thought, I see in several answers to similiar questions the
possibility that there is a stuck message in outbox. Is it possible to have a
stuck message and not be able to see it in the outbox.
I have a message in the outbox...it is the one I have been trying to send.
Or I thought it was.
Now I think I have thought so much on this that I am rethinking and
confusing myself. lol
Thanks.
