Messages stuck in outbox but really sending many t...

I have an E63 and just in the last few weeks whenever I try to SMS people the message is automatically sent to the outbox saying it will be resent at such and such a time for up to a few hours (unless I delete the message) but people are receiving the SMS multiple times without my knowledge (as my phone still has the message in my outbox). I have tried deleting all messages on my phone, taking out the battery, SIM card and memory card but none of that seems to work and I'm really not very keen to reset to factory settings for fear of losing all my **bleep** lol help!!

Oh. I did use that code (then spent an hour trying to turn my phone back on!). It deleted my phonebook and since I'm **bleep** in checking that numbers are saved to my sim card... I wasn't very impressed. It seemed to do the trick, I can text again. I'm getting rid of the phone now though - I read on these forums that quite a lot of people have had the same kind of issue with the e63. Maybe I'm just a brat but I expect a phone to work properly for at least a year before giving me grief, especially a Nokia. I've only had it for 8 months!!

Messages stuck in outbox when using "Send to Mail recipient" and outlook is closed

A user who uses RPC over https all the time on his desktop in the office. In general
he has no problem to send/receive emails. But when he tried to send a File through right click - > send to -> Mail recipient , New Email window opens and He changes
the subject and add receipt and send email when outlook is close. The email stuck in outbox.
any idea and how to fix it?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
As what Roady says, it is an expected behavior. This is because the
“spooler” which is something that manages the MAPI transports is working when Outlook is running. So when you sending messages when Outlook is not running, there is no spooler running, and so nothing is going to send your mail. The next time you launch Outlook,
you will see the mail in the Outbox.
For more information about this behavior, please refer to A trip back in time—the evolution of Outlook part of the following link:

Message stuck in outbox - won't send

I've tried rebooting, switching airplane mode on and off, and several times now I just go back to the mailbox and the message is stuck in the outbox. The progress bar shows "sending 1 of 1", and the progress bar shows 100%, but the god damned message is still in there. I know the server is working because I just sent a test message to myself from Outlook 2003 through the same account and received it.
edit: I just tried switching to airplane mode and then powering off and on the iPhone. I checked the mailbox while still in airplane mode, then went to settings and turned off airplane mode and reconnected to WiFi and my network. Then I went to mail again, and the same thing happened. It looks like it is sending the message, but the progress bar just stops once it is completely full, and the message never sends.
PLEASE HELP! This thing is driving me NUTS! And of course it figures it would happen with one of the most urgent emails I've ever needed to send! HAHAHA!

Does it work, if you change the outgoing (SMTP) server from tge GMail server to your network operator's SMTP server?

My mail is getting stuck in outbox, but I am receiving mail just fine. Message says 'server timed out'. What can i do to fix this?

Hello Naila1,
It sounds like you are unable to send emails, as they go straight to the outbox, but you can get the emails without issue. I recommend using the Connection Doctor to help you troubleshoot what is happening with the following article:

Take care,

Messages stuck in Outbox in Outlook

We are running Exchange 2007 SP1 and Outlook 2007 SP2.
We are increasingly recv'ing reports of users having messages stuck in the Outbox folder of their Outlook client. The messages are also visible in OWA, although the strange thing is that the messages do seem to have been delivered.
There seem to be a multitude of posts about this issue, but nothing concrete - does anyone know if MS has found a fix for this?
I can see this:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/948984.
However, it states:
"In this scenario, when you log on to the online account that uses this personal folder, the Outbox folder indicates that there is a message that is waiting to be sent. This message is visible only in Outlook Web Access. The message is not visible in Outlook 2007"
- The difference is that we see this in Outlook 2007 as well.
Anyone?

Hi Yoshi,
1. Would you please let me know whether your customer has same scenarios described by the KB (Move Sent Items from OST to local PST file) when the issue occurs?
2. Whether the issue always occurs and can be reproduced? If the issue can be reproduced, please let me know the steps which reproduced the issue
3. If the issue can always be reproduced, please let me know whether the issue occurs if you use OWA to send email or use Outlook Online Mode to send email.

Mail won't quit and messages stuck in Outbox

Having a very strange problem with Mail on my father's Mac Mini. It is not my computer so I'm not sure what has lead to this, but Mail will not quit, and every message we try to send gets stuck in the Outbox. The version running is Mac OS X 10.6.8, and the version of Mail is 4.6 (1085).
I have tried removing all messages from the Outbox and then deleting Outbox.mbe. This hasn't worked.
Has anyone else had this problem?

Yes. Yes and yes. I don't want to sound like a broken record in these threads, but I got rid of Mac Mail shortly after 10.6. It became unstable and unreliable. I gave it another go with 10.8.1 and it was still a problem. IMHO it is a very weak client mail app.
Finally I had peace in going for a web client (gmail) and problems went away.
Just yesterday I spent hours on an unsolveable mail problem on my neighbors iMac. I finally just signed her up for gmail and imported address book and her old email server address. Simple.

E mail. I can not send email to a contact from my list. When I hit their email address, the new message box comes up but the send icon is not highlighted and I can not send it. Why? How do I fix it. Happens on both I pad Air 2 and I Phone 5

WWhen I press the email of a contact, the new message box appears with the address but the send icon is not highlighted. Even after typing a message, I can not send it. This is on both I Phone 5 and I Pad Air 2. this just started and not sure what I did. Help please?

Read this thread, it's a bug that many are experiencing:
Cannot send emails from contacts

Messages Stuck In Outbox Vanished Into Thin Air

I sent a bunch of important messages to my e-mail when browsing Safari, but for some reason they weren't going through and were stuck in my outbox.Now all of a sudden all those messages are nowhere to be found in my mailbox, and I know I didn't delete them.Would an update wipe them all out?Is there any way to recover them?I don't understand why all of a sudden they are gone.I have looked everywhere for them.

I had an excellent Apple support agent named Luis who helped out. Re-installed the account partially. Discovered that there is in fact a bug in Yosemite. The mail client in mac will not save the outgoing server address and confusion amongst different mail account happens, added to outbox messages stuck. Hopefully Apple will correct bug in later OS X version. Case number 753401346

Why did you post this in the category "Apple Branded iPod accessories"?!?
Try reviewing your outbox data, SMTP, IMAP, POP3, whatever you are using, you might want to look up Yahoo for more detail.

Outlook 2010 - messages stuck in Outbox

Hi All,
I'm wondering if you can help? I've seen a lot of forum posts regarding this issue and gone through several steps people found to resolve it. Unfortunately in this instance these steps failed to work.
Problem:
350Kb email stuck in outlook Outbox (Exchange non cached mode)
OS & Software involved:
Mail server: Windows Server 2008 R2 running Exchange 2010 14.01.0438
Client: Server 2008 R2 (Remote Desktop Services) Running Outlook 2010
Steps Already tried:
» Disabled Antivirus fully and tried deleting
» Removed the attachment from the offending email and tried to delete again.
» Attempted to drag email to new folder but it fails saying message doesn't exist. It may of been moved, removed or access is denied
» Disabled all Add-ins & Tried running outlook in safe mode
» Enabling Cached Exchange mode, allowed to build OST & using Work offline method
» Attaching to users mailbox and deleting from another user
» rebuilt the users outlook profile
When I look at the properties of the outbox (Properties » Folder sizes). It shows the file is still there on the server
Any help would be greatly appreciated as this has happened a couple of times for this user now.
Many Thanks,
Jon

Hi,
Have you tried using MFCMAPI tool to look at the Outbox of your mailbox? If not, please follow the steps below to check the result:
1. Start MFCMAPI
2. Go to Session > Logon
3. Select your profile, the default profile name is Outlook.
4. Double-click on the problematic account.
5. Expand “Root – Mailbox” > “IPM_SUBTREE”
6. Right click “Outbox” and select “Open Contents Table”
7. New Window Launches with Title “Outbox”

9. Close MFCMAPI
Please let me know the result.

Mail from apps stuck in outbox, can not send or move

This is weird ... So I can send and receive email just fine on all my mail accounts but when I try and send a link from safari or a picture from the photos app it never sends. I don't hear a whoosh sound after sending and when I look in the mail app the message is just sitting there in the outbox.
Even weirder is that I can forward these messages but can not send them. I can't even move the messages since my only choices are the trash or the outbox. Even worse the outbox doesn't show up at all on my mac when i sync, so these messages are stuck in my iphone somewhere in limbo.
... anyone else have this problem or know how to solve it?

The same occurs with all accounts, or with one account in particular?
Even weirder is that I can forward these messages but can not send them.
Forward these new messages from where? You can forward a received message or a message that was successfully sent which will be located in the account's Sent mailbox, but you can't forward a newly composed message.
Even worse the outbox doesn't show up at all on my mac when i sync, so these messages are stuck in my iphone somewhere in limbo.
Email account mailboxes and messages and the iPhone's Outbox are not included with the iTunes sync process. Server stored mailboxes with an IMAP account are kept synchronized with the server with each email client used to access the account, but the Outbox mailbox with the Mail.app on your Mac and with the iPhone's Mail application is not synced with anything.

Messages stuck in Outbox until restart on Outlook 2013

hi,
We are experiencing issues with Outlook 2013 on an onpremise Exchange 2013 system.
the issue only affects users with Outlook 2013 and messages queue up in the outbox until we restart Outlook. 2010 users are fine.
The article http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2862523 describes the issue exactly but i wanted to know if anyone has fixed this issue without disabling SPI on the firewall. The article says it is a temporary workaround as it puts the clients at risk and
the last update was July 2014.
Microsoft have already verified the on premise Exchange setup as we opened a call with the Exchange team before we discovered the article.

Droid Maxx- Outgoing email messages stuck in outbox. When you click on them, it says- message is being sent and cannot be opened- how can I clear them out?

This is my work email. I still receive emails. I just can't send any outgoing. They are stuck in the outbox. When I check my email on my computer at work, nothing in the outbox, and they don't show as being sent. Log jam. How can I remove them? Already did a restart, etc.

I have had the same problem - stuck for 2 days, but I still can send & receive emails. I tried your suggestion - it worked! Thanks!

Can't delete message stuck in outbox

My wife tried to send a message to several hundred recipients last night and the .Mac mail server choked on it. The problem is that the list of intended recipients is so long that it goes off the bottom of the screen and I can't close the window. We have to force quit Mail to exit it (the red button to close the message window is greyed out) and, even though I deleted the outgoing server Mail is trying to use from the accounts list, it keeps trying to send the message. Does anyone know how I can get rid of this thing?
For a hilarious Exposé screenshot, you can go to files.me.com/holtfam/whts6e
Help. Thanks.

With Mail closed, locate the file in Finder and drag it to the trash.
~/Library/Mail/Mailboxes/Outbox.mbox/Messages/the message
As the outgoing mail server is not located on your Mac, taking that action would not disable the 'sending', more probably compound the problem actually as it can't send.
