Mac Forum / Applications / Outlook Express / July 2006

Icreated a new account that my mail server wouldn't recognise so I deleted it
and went back to my default account. But now when I start to send a email I
ger a message that says: "One or more messages in your Outbox do not have a
valid account specified. Would you like to use your default account to send
these messages".

I click yes then get a server error saying the message could not be sent
because the server rejected the sender's e-mail address..... which the error
message says is the account  I deleted because it didn't work.

Bottom line is I get the no valid account assigned to messages in my Outbox
everytime I open Outlook Express eventhough  I don't even have messages in
the Outbox and on every message I try to send.

Looks like the problem is Outlook Express is not assigning an account to my
outgoing mail and when it askes me if I want to send the mail using my
default account and I click yes... it's sending it through an account that
has been deleted, which is triggering a server error about an unknown account.

Any way to assign my default account to my outgoing mail... and hopefully
get rid of all these error messages?

Thanks,
BJ
