The only solution I've found has been to encourage my users to close Outlook and then re-open Outlook. If you manage to find anything regarding this, I'd be very interested to know, as I'd like to fix this rather annoying problem.

I have a user that refuses to reboot Windows. He claims that it's a problem on my end, not his, and he should never have to reboot (but he also refuses to install updates since he says Windows and it's updates are not production stable yet - go figure). Anyway, he's running Office 2003, and every few days (about once a week to two weeks) his Outlook will hang sending messages. POP3 still works fine, but any and all messages hang in his outbox. A reboot solves this, but he keeps insisting that it's my problem and not Outlook's. This happens with plain messages, as well as ones with Word attachments. I do not show any SMTP errors on my end (I don't even show a connection in the logs to be honest) nor any other error messages. Outlook gives the error that the SMTP server is not responding and for him to contact his ISP. Other users can send emails fine using Outlook while his is giving this error message. Once a message is hung, and other messages he sends will also hang.

Has anyone seen any type of solution to this? Other than changing to Thunderbird and/or Linux that is. I'm off to troll the KBs on MS's site and see if there are any solutions there.
