Version of Outlook?
Type of mail account?
Any send/receive errors?

Does your desktop account settings still have the option to leave a copy on the server checked?

If you use a virus scanner that integrates with Outlook disable this
integration and try again.

I am having the same problem exactly 2 days ago. I have to get my email thru
comcast directly but have no problem sending thru Outlook. Did you restart
as I did since there were updates from McAfee? I hope this is not too big a
problem since I live and breathe via email
