Outlook doesn't send messages immediately

[RealGomer]

I have Outlook set up send / receive automatically when exiting and send
immediately when connected. More often than not, my outbox will still have
messages in it the next time I run Outlook. When I click on the Send/Receive
button, the message gets sent. I connect thru a DSL at home and have MSO2003.

You failed to provide your mail account type and connection status.

Clarify: mail account type - the same as a couple hundred million others?
connection status = DSL = always on

Excellent. You answered neither of my questions. Do you need help
understanding more basic issues?
Mail account is the type of email server you are using. We can't guess that.
You must tell us.
Connection status is specified in your File Menu.

Connection Status does not appear in the file menu on my version of outlook.
Why would I care if it doesn't transmit if I'm working offline?
As I said, the same as millions of others - POP/SMTP

Because Outlook will not transmit if you are working offline.
Your notion that we should be able to read your mind to know you are using
POP/SMTP is amusing and suggests that perhaps you should not be using USENET
to seek free advice. There are no mind readers here.
