Have you turned on Diagnostic Logging? Do so, and send something out, verify that is is not received and then post the relevant portions of the error log that show the problem (will probably have a "failed" somewhere).

Post all replies to the group to keep the discussion intact. All
unsolicited mail sent to my personal account will be deleted without

After furious head scratching, Joe asked:
| Thanks. I've tried those steps several times, to no effect. I have
| three email addresses (all on the same ISP, though), and they all
| behave the same way.
|
| My ISP swears it it not a problem on their end (and judging by the
| number of people here who report similar behavior. I suspect my ISP
| may be right); however, they only support OE and webmail--so they
| will give me no help in seeking a solution.
|
| At this point, I'm convinced it's a bug in Outlook that is not ISP
| specific, so I'm trying to decide which alternate mail program to
| switch to.

||| 0x80070057 2007.06.08 19:58:20 Main: Synch operation completed
|||
