Woooooooow Heather, I went and looked at the out box and both messages were there, never thought of that< bangs head on computer table> now I deteted them and everything is back to the way it should be, thanks for your help. Yaaaahooooooo Betty

Betty - can you look at outbox and see if an old message is 'hanging' there? ive had that happen before - if you send it to a duff addy it sort of sticks in the outbox and until you delete it it stops other mail being sent. If there is a message there, just delete it and then try to send the new message.

Hi again Rose, I sent an e-mail twice to the same address, this was the wrong e-mail addrees, I know that now but obviously they were not sent. Now everytime I go to send an e-mail this message pops up and I don't know how to get rid of it. The message could not be sent because one of the recipients was rejected by the server. The rejected e-mail address was '[email protected]/'. Subject 'URGENT!!!!!!!!!!', Account: 'pop.orange.net', Server: 'smtp.orangehome.co.uk', Protocol: SMTP, Server Response: '501 Bad address syntax', Port: 25, Secure(SSL): No, Server Error: 501, Error Number: 0x800CCC79 The message could not be sent because one of the recipients was rejected by the server. The rejected e-mail address was '[email protected]/'. Subject '', Account: 'pop.orange.net', Server: 'smtp.orangehome.co.uk', Protocol: SMTP, Server Response: '501 Bad address syntax', Port: 25, Secure(SSL): No, Server Error: 501, Error Number: 0x800CCC79 Betty

If you google Error 501 0x800CCC79 i would check out the PC World Forums someone on there has asked the same question as you and there are a couple of replies and several other sites to check out Roy

Betty, Is it all emails or just emails to a certain address? Rose

Thanks everyone for all your messages but problem still not fixed. I can still send and receive e-mail it just this message comes up about 2 message I sent and the addresses were wrong and the Sever Error 501 0x800CCC79 pops up every time I want to send an e-mail, also yello Triange with exclemation mark in it in right hand corner of e-mail page. Any other suggesttion, please make instructions simple!! Betty

Hi Betty Maybe something is wrong on the computer airwaves - I have just had a similar problem.Typed a long e-mail with attachment clicked send then after a few seconds got a like message about being unsendable because of wrong address (which I knew was not the case).My computer then seemed to be frozen - I could not click on anything without getting the beep. Being a computer idiot I panicked a bit but switched it off and then rebooted, went into sent e-mails and hey presto it had been sent.Can anyone explain?? Liz

You can also get this message if you have added a number of cc addresses - if just one of those are wrong O.E. will reject the whole message.

There's an answer on a website... http://en.allexperts*com/q/Microsoft-Outlook-1541/Microsoft-Outlook-Sending-email-1.htm Basically, the email address is probably wrong.

Hi Rose, Looked at the website info and followed the instructions of what to do but still have the same message coming up on the e-mail. It is the same message as on that website though. Betty p.s. have to go to bed almost falling off chair as I am so tired, will check tomorrow, thanks for your help. Betty
