Vista - email automatically resending

A single reply to an email from a friend two weeks ago keeps automatically
resending itself at random. The message was deleted by me shortly after
sending it originally. As an example today my friend received the email
twice. I cannot locate the email in any folder associated with live mail. It
is becoming quite a nuisance but I don't know how to stop my computer from
continual resending.

Are you sure that the View for Outbox is Show all messages?

Use the Maintenance Dialog to find the Message Store.
Copy that then switch to a cmd window and use it to make
a cd command. E.g. type cd /d (including a trailing space)
then right-click paste the path you copied. Then press Enter.
Now apparently* you can check on the contents of your Outbox by:

cd Outbox
and
dir/a/od

My guess is that you will see your problem message still in there
even though it is supposedly sent.

Hmm... when I do that I see some old 0-byte files there.
Who knew? This might explain my compaction problems!
Hope so. Anyway, thanks for this bit of serendipity! ; )

* Actually since I didn't know where the Outbox was I first did:
dir/ad/s Outbox
which would then allow you to get the actual full path for another
cd right-click, Paste if necessary.


Good luck

Thanks Robert, I tried this and outbox showed 0 bytes stored. Anything else
come to mind to help fix this?

That suggests that your friend's symptom is not due to your WLMail.
So, try looking further down the path. E.g. if it goes through your friend's
mailbox provided by an ISP and that has a web interface use that to see
if the message is sticking there. If so, delete it, or whatever.


Good luck
