Make sure Thunderbird is not in 'off-line' mode?

If you see sent items remaining in the Outbox ...


I don't think I've met "offline mode".

The messages have found their way to my sent file ok.



That is when you powerup Tbird and ignore the requests
to login to your various email providers, and just use
it offline, reading what you had previously downloaded,
and sending replies to email and usenet.

Then when you press F5 it gives you the login popups for
your internet/email providers and your new mails are
are sent, and new mail/ etc received.

I think you can also set up the interval where Tbird
sends /receives new mail/posts. During that internal
your outbound stuff just sits waiting, AFAIK. That's how
I thought it worked. Seems to for me.
