I think I have this issue isolated, but why it's doing it makes no sense...

After a migration from Exchange 2000 to 2007 (Manual .pst import). Emails seemed to work fine for a bit.

Now we're getting more and more occurrences come up where emails are getting stuck in the outbox.
- We've determined it's only with emails going to addresses that aren't in any associated contact list (personal, GAL, public folder list all exist). If we put the address in a contact list, the email sends fine.
- It's only happening with Vista users. All users are Outlook 2007.
- Users are not joined to the domain as of yet. (We don't want to join them yet, so haven't tested if this would be a resolution. It working prior w/o them being joined to the domain.)
- emails eventually send after anywhere between 15 min to an hour (maybe even longer).
- doesn't matter whether there's an attachment or not.

Seems ludicrous that Outlook can't send to emails w/o having a contact list entry. Anybody running into this problem?

We've also noticed that emails will get stuck when sending large attachments (> 1MB). Again, only Vista users. (I've setup the same user on an XP load w/ Outlook 2007 and no issue sending.
