In Outlook 2007 I cannot send emails when I pick the address from the

Does anybody have an idea.
1000 Thx
Dirk
Dirk said:Maybe this can help your imagination what I am doing!
When I try to send an email I click on the "To" button to select an
address from the address book. Once I have selected an address and wrote
my friend some nice lines I press the "Send" button but the email doesn't
get send and remains in the "Outbox"
When I instead manually type is email address and presse the "Send"
button, the email will send to my friend and the "Outbox" is empty.
Do you have a better picture now. I am not doing anthing complicated.

Russ Valentine said:That's because you posted no information. "I cannot send emails" tells us
absolutely nothing. From what I've finally been able to extract from you, I
suspect you have no valid addresses in the Outlook Address Book because you
imported your Contacts from a CSV file. Imported addresses often fail to
resolve, and you can't send a message without a resolved address.
For your next step, create a Contact from scratch. Make sure its electronic
address resolves. See if you can send a message to that contact from the
Outlook Address Book.

Bill B Mason said:Under W2000 I used to keep the .pst file in My Documents\Outlook (so that
backing up "My Documents" saved all Outlook info). On the new Vista PC, I
copied my username.pst file (and a couple of archive files) into
"username\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Outlook. I deleted the default Outlook
2007
file "outlook.pst" and opened my old file. I can't remember having to set
it
as default, it would be the only choice available having deleted the
default
file.
I have a backup of the outlook file as it was on my old pc. It would be an
even bigger pain to revert back to that as there's been new
emails/contacts/notes etc changed since then. I still have the old PC in
it's
original form pending formatting the drive and installing Vista to use as
a
second PC.
Backups on the new PC have been troublesome (Vista/Acronis issues) and I
don't have a backup "history"; only last couple of days at any time at the
moment. This will change when I can sort it out.

Russ Valentine said:Just pasting a file into the default location is a bad idea. That does not
connect the file to the profile and corrupts the profile. Fortunately, by
deleting the original file, you have avoided corrupting your PST. All you
need to do is create a new Outlook profile and connect this data file
correctly to the profile: Open it in Outlook, set it as the default delivery
location, restart Outlook, and then close the new file created by the new
profile. After that, all you need to do is configure the Outlook Address

I'm not trying to be evasive, I know that in order to find faults,
information is needed; my problem is I'm not sure what more I can say.
I used to use Outlook 2003 and have spent some years adding contacts
and
their email addresses. When I got the new PC with Vista and Outlook
2007,
I
just copied over the .pst file with all my contacts, calendar, notes,
emails
etc and told Outlook 2007 to open it. That's it.
It's not even that easy to run further tests (although I will when I
next
find a contact whose address doesn't work) because as I found entries
that
don't work, I retyped them in and now they do work.
If this isn't enough to go on then all I can suggest is that next time
I
come across a contact that doesn't work, I won't re-enter the email but
instead, I'll create a new contact and keep the old one so I can
compare
them
and post here again with any new information revealed. And I'll
apologise
to
the contact for using him/her as a test subject !

You first. We're not looking over your shoulder, you know. You must

I just noticed this thread, a couple of weeks late !. I'd like to
support
Dirk here - I have exactly the same problem, no error messages, some
emails
just don't go.
I am running a new pc with Vista and Outlook 2007, upgraded from
W2000
and
Outlook 2003. Most of the email addresses in my contact list have
been
in
use
for some time as I just copied across the .pst file. So definitely
no
faulty
entry methods here. The emails used to work but don't now. I have to
retype
the address in the contact list, or enter it directly in the "to"
field
before it will work. When I retype the email, it appears exactly as
it
did
before, only now it works.
This is a real pain and I'd hate to think I'm going to have to enter
all
my
email addresses again. It's a particular nuisance if I send to
several
addresses in a single message - some go ok but the message remains
in
the
outbox because some don't go; trouble is I don't know which went and
which
didn't.
Please try a bit harder to help if you can.
:
That's because you posted no information. "I cannot send emails"
tells
us
absolutely nothing. From what I've finally been able to extract
from
you,
I
suspect you have no valid addresses in the Outlook Address Book
because
you
imported your Contacts from a CSV file. Imported addresses often
fail
to
resolve, and you can't send a message without a resolved address.
For your next step, create a Contact from scratch. Make sure its
electronic
address resolves. See if you can send a message to that contact

Bill B Mason said:OK. So, if there's a compatibility issue between old .pst files and
Outlook
2007, I'd never seen anything to suggest it and as I said, pretty much
everything worked perfectly except for a few email address issues. The
advice
you gave suggests that a new format .pst file is a good idea, and I'd have
to
agree but it only seemed to deal with importing contacts, not email
history,
calendar, notes etc, etc.
What I have done is to create a new .pst file and imported all the data
from
my old one (which it turns out was 97-2002 format - I have done this
before
for Outlook 2003). This seemed to work fine. I've kept a copy of my old
.pst
file renamed as .pst.old just in case.
I'll just have to wait and see if the email problem has now gone away. The
other thing to happen is that the new .pst file is 25% larger than the old
one - not so surprising I guess.
So I don't know if this fixes the issue yet but I agree it's something
that
should have been done - it's a shame the help files/installation

Bill B Mason said:I'd like to suggest that you adopt the approach of repeating your
explanation
since I have obviously failed to understand what you have said - it's not
helpful to just suggest that I haven't read your post which let me assure
you
is not the case.
You refer to an article 287563 which makes me concerned that you havn't
grasped what I've been saying : that article deals with the situation
where
the contact details do not appear when I use the address book to select
message recipiants; that is not the problem I have, all the cotact details
do
appear and seem correct.
So now that I have imported the old (97-2002) format .pst file into a new
format .pst file, what do you recommend ? Should I quarantine the new file
and then create a new profile and then reuse my old format .pst file ? (I
can't delete the new file until I have Outlook up & running and rescued
any
info added to only the new file).
I must have entered email account info the first time I ran outlook on the
new pc, is the mechanism for getting an old file "connected" critical to
the
order of doing things ?
And a last question - the implication is that the new Outlook format
brings
with it some advantages (ignoring your rather defensive comments on
compatibility). If there are benefits to using the newer format, how do I
get
my data into a new format file (which I thought I had done by importing
it -
it certainly seems so).

location, restart Outlook, and then close the new file created by the
new
profile. After that, all you need to do is configure the Outlook
Address
Book Service.

Under W2000 I used to keep the .pst file in My Documents\Outlook (so
that
backing up "My Documents" saved all Outlook info). On the new Vista
PC,
I
copied my username.pst file (and a couple of archive files) into
"username\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Outlook. I deleted the default
Outlook
2007
file "outlook.pst" and opened my old file. I can't remember having
to
set
it
as default, it would be the only choice available having deleted the
default
file.
I have a backup of the outlook file as it was on my old pc. It would
be
an
even bigger pain to revert back to that as there's been new
emails/contacts/notes etc changed since then. I still have the old
PC
in
it's
original form pending formatting the drive and installing Vista to
use
as
a
second PC.
Backups on the new PC have been troublesome (Vista/Acronis issues)
and
I
don't have a backup "history"; only last couple of days at any time
at
the
moment. This will change when I can sort it out.
:
Where did you copy the PST file?
How did you connect it to your new Outlook profile and set it as
your
default?
Did you keep a backup?

I'm not trying to be evasive, I know that in order to find
faults,
information is needed; my problem is I'm not sure what more I can
say.
I used to use Outlook 2003 and have spent some years adding
contacts
and
their email addresses. When I got the new PC with Vista and
Outlook
2007,
I
just copied over the .pst file with all my contacts, calendar,
notes,
emails
etc and told Outlook 2007 to open it. That's it.
It's not even that easy to run further tests (although I will
when I
next
find a contact whose address doesn't work) because as I found
entries
that
don't work, I retyped them in and now they do work.
If this isn't enough to go on then all I can suggest is that next
time
I
come across a contact that doesn't work, I won't re-enter the
but
instead, I'll create a new contact and keep the old one so I can
compare
them
and post here again with any new information revealed. And I'll
apologise
to
the contact for using him/her as a test subject !
:
You first. We're not looking over your shoulder, you know. You
must
provide
the information we would need to troubleshoot. You haven't.
This problem was caused by your migrating your data incorrectly
or
configuring your address book service incorrectly. State how you
did
both.
State whether you kept a backup of your data file.

I just noticed this thread, a couple of weeks late !. I'd like
to
support
Dirk here - I have exactly the same problem, no error
messages,
some
emails
just don't go.
I am running a new pc with Vista and Outlook 2007, upgraded
from
W2000
and
Outlook 2003. Most of the email addresses in my contact list
have
been
in
use
for some time as I just copied across the .pst file. So
definitely
no
faulty
entry methods here. The emails used to work but don't now. I
have
to
retype
the address in the contact list, or enter it directly in the
"to"
field
before it will work. When I retype the email, it appears
exactly
as
it
did
before, only now it works.
This is a real pain and I'd hate to think I'm going to have to
enter
all
my
email addresses again. It's a particular nuisance if I send to
several
addresses in a single message - some go ok but the message
remains
in
the
outbox because some don't go; trouble is I don't know which
went
and
which
didn't.
Please try a bit harder to help if you can.
:
That's because you posted no information. "I cannot send
emails"
tells
us
absolutely nothing. From what I've finally been able to
extract
from
you,
I
suspect you have no valid addresses in the Outlook Address
Book
because
you
imported your Contacts from a CSV file. Imported addresses
often
fail
to
resolve, and you can't send a message without a resolved
address.
For your next step, create a Contact from scratch. Make sure
its
electronic
address resolves. See if you can send a message to that
contact
from
the
Outlook Address Book.
Why did you have to import these Contacts?

There is no error message. Send/Receive operate without any
problems.
The
outbox is filled with both types (manually entered address
and
select
from
address book) at the same time but not all mails get sent.
The
send
items
shows the expected results
I started with a plain installation and a plain pst adding
some
names
manually to the address book. I also imported addresses
through
csv.
Same
effects
If there would be something special I would describe it. -
If
you
have
suggestion let me know but keep you condescending comments
("Nothing
much
to go on here") for youself because you have not
contributed
anything
here
either.
message
Nothing much to go on here.
Post error messages.
Post transports.
Post what appears in Sent Items.
Post how you migrated Outlook data to this installation.
Post how you configured the Outlook Address Book in this
installation.

Maybe this can help your imagination what I am doing!
When I try to send an email I click on the "To" button to
select
an
address from the address book. Once I have selected an
address
and
wrote
my friend some nice lines I press the "Send" button but
the
doesn't get send and remains in the "Outbox"
When I instead manually type is email address and presse
the
"Send"
button, the email will send to my friend and the "Outbox"
is
empty.
Do you have a better picture now. I am not doing anthing
complicated.
