Deleted an email account, now other 2 won't send/receive

I had 3 email accounts set up on my outlook and just today deleted one. Now
the other 2 won't sent or receive any emails. And when I close Outlook it
warns me that there are messages waiting to go out - but I can't find them in
my Outboxes or my Sent Items. Where are my messages waiting to go out? Why
did deleting the one email make it so the others are now broken? I use
Outlook to look for work and I really need this to be fixed! PLEASE can
someone help me??

It sounds like the account you deleted was your primary account and the two
remaining accounts were aliases of the primary account. Alias accounts look
for the primary account to make their connection to the ISP. When there is
no primary account, the aliases can not connect to the ISP. You need to call
your ISP tech support, explain what happened and ask them to give you the
necessary information to set up the account you deleted.

Steve's answers are probably the source of the problem, but you should also
post your question on a group supporting Outlook. This group is for a
different program, Microsoft Access. The webpage can be confusing and may have
misled you (as it has misled many others) - scroll down the list of subject
areas and find one for Outlook.
