I was having the problem pasted below from a previous groups thread.
I've disabled the vba addin in outlook 2003. Sue Mosher suggests that
this problem couldn't be caused by the vba addin alone and she suggests
looking at the code this addin is running. How does one do this? The
error this was causing for me was that if I opened my outbox folder it
would move messages to date:none and unitalicize them. They were then
unsendable of course. A pesky annoyance. Anyhow, disabling the vba
addin seems to have solved this, but what does this plugin do anyhow?
Can I live without it? Regards,

I have had a long standing problem with SMTP mail in Outlook 2003 where
if I
have a mail item sitting in my outbox, and I make the outbox the
current
folder, then the display font in which the mail item appears changes
from
italicized to normal and the item does not get sent when I do a
Send/Receive. To send the item I have to move it to the drafts folder,
open
it from there, click on the Send button, and then do a Send/Receive
without
looking in the outbox.
Today I did some experimenting with removing and replacing the registry
keys
for the addins listed under
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\Outlook\Addins and
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\Outlook\Addins, and I have
found
that I only have to delete the registry key for
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\Outlook\Addins\Microsoft.VbaAddinForOutlook.1
to get rid of the problem. I tried this on two machines and it fixed
the
problem on both. The only other Outlook addins listed in the registry
were
PDFMOutlook.PDFMOutlook and SmartWhoisMsoLib.SmartWhoisMso under HKLM,
and
Microsoft.OutlookBackup.1 under HKCU.
So it seems that it's Microsoft's own addin that is causing the
screwup.
Both machines are running WinXP SP2 and Office 2003 SP1 with current
security patches.

The VBA add-in by itself would not cause this problem but VBA code
could. Did you check to see if any VBA code might be running?
You might also want to check for otheradd.-ins (not COM add-ins) in
Tools | Options | Other |Advanced Options | Add-in Manager.
