Sending message problem

[JurijK]

I could not find this one - to many similar topics...
Using: Windows Vista Home Premium - Windows Mail 6.0.6000.16386
Mail account with Gmail.
Receiving works fine. When new message is prepared, it remains in Outbox
(outbox folder however does not appear in Bold!). Status bar claims "Working
Online".
Clicking "Send/Receive" does not help.
Workaround: closing Windows Mail. After re-opening Windows Mail establishes
connection with Gmail servers, checks for new mail and also sends out all
mail from outbox. Then the messae also appears in "Sent Items" folder.
Message is sent only after restarting Windows Mail. Kind of works but is
annoying. Any solution available?

Messages may be stuck in the Outbox when you use Windows Mail on a computer
that is running Windows Vista

It also works on other folders.
