deleted email account and reinstalled but still same problem, messages still stuck in outbox

Note: If you lose internet connectivity or Thunderbird is blocked from internet eg: in offline mode, then only the 'Send Later' option is available.

'Send Later' will put all emails in the 'Outbox'.

To send emails in Outbox. You must be connected to internet and in 'online' mode. Right click on 'Outbox' folder in Folder Pane and select 'Send unsent messages'.

Please report back with info. Are you in offline or online mode ? Is 'Send unsent messages' available to click on or is it greyed out? How many messages are in the Outbox ?

Hi, im in online mode. send unsend messages is greyed out. I just replied to an email and it is in both my sent and outbox folders but all the other ones are still just in outbox. I cannot delete them, move them or anything?

The same happened for a Hotmail / Outlook account I tested with, and some issues were reported today. It may have been resolved by now and should correct itself.
