When I click Send to a new email I wrote it appears in the Outbox BUT in
ordinary type and therefore when I click Send/ Receive it is not sent. If I
highlight the offending email in the outbox and open it, then click Actions
and then Foward it will appear in the Outbox in italic type and will be sent
on clicking Send/Receive. It does not seem to then appear in the Sent folder.
 
Do you have an AV set to scan outgoing mail? If yes, turn it off and see if
the situation clears up.

Hi Milly. Thanks for the suggestion but I'm afraid it did not work. I
switched off Norton Internet Security and I do not have Microsoft firewall
working either. Anyone else got any ideas.

You may have to uninstall NIS and reinstall and NOT select the option to
scan email. Norton is pretty stubborn about some things.
