Outlook 2000 - stuck in Outbox

[KMcDermott]

Messages are stuck in Outbox (italicized) after sending via Internet Mail (POP) but don't move to Sent Items folder (PST).

Messages have been recieved and replied to by outside recipients.

Have tried Inbox Repair Tool, checked options under Advanced Email. Already specifies move to SENT ITEMS after sending.

Manually dragging contents from Outbox to Sent Items yields "Can't Move Item"

??Stumped.

Check with a recipient to make sure the messages are really being sent. If they are not, then it is possible your SMTP settings are not correct for your mail/ISP.

Sent messages are DEFEINTELY getting through. Had her send me one, and replied.

Plus a few more that you may want to look at.

It's probably worth a try.
