If you've got enough disk space (one of the causes is that you haven't) I should start with a File>Folder>Compact all folders.
If you feel you can free disc space by removing unnecessary files, read through http://reviews.cnet.com/5208-6121-0.html?forumID=45&threadID=22053&messageID=243397
Good luck and let us know how it goes.

Hi
I am using Outlook Express 6 and XP. I have a really annoying fault which occurred yesterday and will not go away - every time I compose a message and then click send the message goes to my Outbox and although the recipient receives it the message stays in the outbox and each three minutes the email resends constantly until I delete it, but I need to save these messages for business purposes. I have 'save copy in sent items folder' checked.
Please help!!!!!
