Perhaps because you have unsent mail.
Is there anything in the Outbox folder?

Kindly turn on your spell checker.

1. Start a thread for yourself.
2. Copy & Paste the error message together with your particular problem. As
it is now, nobody can help you.
Then, some MVPs will come to help.

Patsy's problem is driving you crazy? Strange.

If you are having a similar problem, please describe it in detail.
