A Folder outside of any account was highlighted I created a new message The message had the correct FROM address (same as I use in this group) The message was using an ISP account: my default account The icon on the status bar was correct but I had missed that as this has never happened before Failed means that the ISP wouldn't accept it; I got an error message I changed the account on the status bar to the correct account and it went out -- Rick Make no mistake; The war in Iraq is a war to secure oil profits.
