Have two emails in my "outbox." one is a few kb and one is 1meg. Theyve
both been sending over and over and over sicne i hit send. They keep getting
sent over and over but arent leaving the outbox. Everytime i try to delete
them or move them it tells me that an unknown error has occorued and to
restart Outlook to rectify the program. Ive restarted many times and nothing
is working...HELP!

What version of Outlook do you have? Do you have any anti-virus software
scanning your outgoing messages? If so, turn of that scanning.

This is often caused by scanning outgoing mail with a virus scanner, a
complete waste of time.
