Emails will not send

[JBH1876]

Just changed internet providers ( ATT ) recently and having a problem with a second computer with emailing. Using Microsoft Outlook 2003. Settings seem to be in order, but my wife has four emails that are staying in the Outbox and will not send..My computer is set up identically and having no problems... Thanks

Double check the SMTP settings etc...One little wrong digit can cause this.

[JBH1876]

Settings appear to be fine from the fact I can send emails now, but the four remaining in the outbox from last night are still there........... Going to the Internet Email Settings, and doing the Test Account Settings procedure from there goes fine........

Do those four mails have large attachements?

[JBH1876]

One is just text.. the other two are pics, and a video file... the email thay is just a short text will not move either

JBH1876--Do you have your antivirus program set to scan outgoing mail?
Can you delete those four emails and try again?

Antivirus settings are ok......... I copied, and pasted one email that was 15kb and it sent fine............ I heard some time ago " If one mail recipients mailbox is maxed it will prevent the the email from going thru completely". True?

Then it may have been some corruption in the original emails that caused them to not be sent. Try the same thing with another one.

It would stop them from being delivered and you'd likely get a message back saying the mailbox is full or the mail is undeliverable but it would at least reach your own ISP's email servers and initially appear to have been sent properly.

Sorry for not getting back..... I've had to reboot my pc several times before emails would send..... my wifes email hangs when using send, but finally does so after a number of trys...
