Re: Not All Outlook 2003 Email Attachments Go Out

The best way to fix a profile is to create a new one via the Mail icon in Control Panel. You don't do any exporting or importing - simply create the new profile with a new PST and use File | Open to open your old PST then copy everything over.
I'd test with a clean, new profile without anything copied first.

1.5 Gb is ok for Outlook 2003 as long as you are using a Unicode PST.

It could be a service issue or some sort of hiccup between Roadrunner services. Are you using their email server? If so, you might try adding another account from, say, Google and test with that when you have the problem.

Bill,

Thanks for responding.

No my Yahoo email account is used totally outside of Outlook.

If my pst file (which is pretty large and is about 1.5 GB) is exported and a
new profile is created and that old profile is imported into the new profile
the problem continues.

Would the sending issues have anything to do with large profiles? As I was
saying, the attachments seem to go out around 70% of the time.

Another thing that I noticed is that my internet provider is Time Warner and
I use their Road Runner cable service and that most often, but NOTalways,
when the attachments do NOT go out it is to someone else who also is using
Road Runner.

If my profile is corrupted is their anyway to clean it up?

Any ideas as to what I should do?

Thanks.

Sending issues can sometimes be caused by a corrupt profile. Try with anew
profile. Disable AVG integration always - you don't need it.
