You may have an add in from that application. You should uncheck it and then
see if that fixes the problem. The instructions are approximate since you
didn't provide your version of Outlook:
From the Outlook standard menu bar: Tools > Options > Other > Advanced
Options > Add In Manager.
If this doesn't work please post your Outlook version, your PST size, what
type of email account you're using (POP3, Exchange), and any error
numbers/messages that occur.

"Outlook will not work." Prove it! Show *us* the error message from
Outlook that says it cannot send your mail. You may have to Google to
find how to thoroughly remove Incredimail. It is bloatware to fluff up
little content into large sized mails, it is spyware that gathers stats
on your e-mails, and it is adware to shove ads in your face, so it is no
surprise that they have a dirty uninstall.

Incredimail - the choice of immature, irresponsible, and ignorant e-mail
users
Incredimail is the choice of immature e-mail users, those that need to
hide the fact that they have little substance in the content of their
message and need to fluff it up with extraneous style and extra garbage.
Or maybe you are a marketer or spammer and that's why you need to bloat
your messages: little to say so use something to enlarge it. Sure,
yeah, your recipients want e-mails that are ten times bloated with fluff
backgrounds, music, gifs, and other non-essential crap. A simple 2KB
message will bloat up to 55KB, or worse. Are you trying to irritate
your recipients that still using dial-up by making them wait longer to
receive your bloated mails? You'll find anything you have in
Incredimail will be hard to get out once you decide to leave it.
Use a good e-mail program. Incredimail isn't one of them. If you
decide to continue using it, expect some of your recipients to block
that crap-ridden mail or even have it tagged as spam if you send many
mails to the same domain, especially for short messages since the fluff
crap will constitute most of the message and be seen as the major
content of all those repetitive e-mails. Also, you may find your
recipients don't appreciate getting childish content. The HTML coding
it employs is awful, and it is highly likely that most if not all of
your e-mails don't even require being sent as HTML messages (which, at a
minimum, doubles the size of your mails to provide an HTML copy and a
plain-text copy assuming that Incredimail follows the RFC standards
which wouldn't be a surprise if they don't).
Be a responsible and considerate email sender. Don't use Incredimail
which emphasizes style over content; i.e., you waste the recipient's
time, bandwidth, and disk space with fluff. Once you decide it is crap,
you'll be back asking how to uninstall it. ISPs or e-mail providers
will support only one or few e-mail clients (to minimize the training or
expertise required by their techs since the operation of the e-mail
client is not their concern but only in the settings needed for it to
use their e-mail service). Don't expect any to help you with
Incredimail. From what I read, don't even expect Incredimail to help
you with Incredimail. Did you even see a FAQ or help page at their web
site?
When I send e-mail, I expect only my mail server to get it and deliver
it to the recipient. However, with Incredimail, it also connects to
them to send information about your use of Incredimail. Read
http://email.about.com/cs/incredimailtips/qt/et063003.htm. Doesn't
anyone bother to read their, um, "policies"
(http://www.incredimail.com/english/privacy.asp)? They announce that
they will collect info regarding your e-mails. Oh no, we're not spyware
but we do collect info on your e-mails. Oh no, we don't spy but we do
spy. An e-mail client should only be connecting to the user's mail
server. They would like to redefine the term "spyware" to not include
themself. People got enraged with Gmail doing that to provide targeted
marketing. No email program should track your email (date & time, how
many number times you use their program, which pictures you used) and
store this marketing data on a server located in a foreign country.
They admit that they collect info about your sent e-mails which means a
data collection and transmission mechanism is employed. With that link
between your computer and their server, they can collect any information
you enter into their email program including the contents of your mails,
mail servers, and even passwords. They may not yet but the mechanism is
already there, and they already openly admit to spying on you. The data
is stored on their servers in Israel. Do you know the privacy laws
there? Have you ever dealt with Israeli companies (I have and the
results haven't been favorable to them).
"IncrediMail relies on two platforms to make an income; 1) the sale of
its software products and 2) advertisement via the Status Window in the
application and on the Web site." So either you buy it from them or you
choose to use adware (see http://snipurl.com/1mbbe for a pic of the
"status" spam window). Not only do they spew ads in your face but they
also append their spam "promotional" signature at the end of everyone of
your outbound e-mails. Yahoo and Hotmail do that, too, and why I will
receive from their service but I will NOT send through it. Instead use
my own ISP's SMTP server to send my outbound mails. However, if you use
the free Incredimail client, you spew spam in every one of your outbound
mails. Do you think your recipients really appreciate getting
Incredimail's ugly advertisement at the end of your mails?
So here is crapware that severely bloats the size of mails, used by
children and spammers to hide that there is little content in their
mails, spys on your mails, and spews ads in your face. Sometimes it is
hard to believe that so many adults are so gullible and are also such
irresponsible e-mailers.

Hi I do not think it is Outlook as the web based email, Tiscali, also will
not receive email. I checked for addins. Looks OK. Nothing from Incredimail
in there. Testing the account also shows no problems except I do not get the
test message. In fact no error messages at all.
Outlook 2003 SP2, POP3. Do not know where to find the pst file.
Thanks for helping

Guess you wouldn't recommend it then. I used the control panel to uninstall
it not the incredimail option.
Also I am not getting any error message but the mail is not getting sent
either by outlook or the ISP server.

If you're not seeing any error messages (even during send/receive?), please
check your application event viewer for any Microsoft Office errors. Please
post the eventID and source.
As you've no doubt learned, Incredimail is not a good application to be
using.

If the outbound e-mail is no longer in the Outbox then Outlook saw good
status returned from the mail server when it gave it the mail. In that
case, the problem isn't with Outlook since it can't do anything after
giving it successfully to the mail server. Outlook removes the item(s)
from the Outbox after it sees the mail server that it got it okay.

Since eventvwr[.exe|.msc] is a Windows GUI app, opening the DOS shell is
not required. Just go to Start -> Run and enter eventvwr.msc (the .exe
works, too).
I have never seen anything but application errors (due to memory access
violations) in Outlook and that won't tell you why the connect or data
transfer failed (but that doesn't seem to be the case). Instead enable
the troubleshooting log, exit Outlook, reload Outlook, do a mail poll,
exit Outlook, and look in the logfile. Depending on your version of
Outlook, the logged entries look like API calls (i.e., calls to
functions) and you will see the POP3 and SMTP commands listed as
parameters to those function calls. If you see your outbound message
gets a RCPT-TO command (which is the client telling the mail server to
where to send your mail) and a DATA command (which is the content of
your message) and they get zero status (good) then the mail server said
it got your mail okay. At that point, the problem is somewhere upstream
of your host (i.e., from your mail server or beyond) and out of your
control.
