Marlyse, I really appreciate your help.. I will do the best I can to answer your questions...

Still trying to get >a picture of your setup. Because when they enter the "Out Tray", they are stuck in this "waiting" status... I was actually playing around trying to recreate this and I think I figured out a reliable way to recreate this problem: send an email and cancel the send before it is finished... The message will be in a "Waiting" status and when you exit Powermail it will complain about "being connected"... If you continue to send email, it will eventually get corrupted enough that you need to disable the outgoing queue in order to get things cleaned up... NOTE: I do NOT cancel my emails when they send... But, it does try to send emails when I am downloading from other accounts, so perhaps it is unable to connect to the SMTP server because of POP3 traffic - but I am just speculating here... > >You have some settings where you could play around with and see if that >changes anything, namely: > >"Retrieve/Send from/to multiple accounts" set it to NOT simultaneously >(under sheduling these options are).

Yeah, I have this set already.... > >Are you continously on a connection, or dialing up each time when sending? I have a FreeBSD system which connects to the internet.. All of my computers connect through this central gateway... NOTE: I am sure this is NOT the problem.. I do not experience problems with any other application on any of the systems which use this gateway/ router to connect to the internet... Though, the connection does go up and down - it is always up when I am checking/responding to email.. > >The problem doesn't make sense to me - and the last time we had one of >these, it turned out to be something quite simple.
