The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Mail Remote, Windows Client, version 3.2

In Microsoft Mail Remote version 3.2 for Windows, if you want to change mail drivers, you must first send all of your messages (empty your Outbox). If you change mail drivers, any messages composed before you change drivers never leave the Outbox.

Microsoft Mail identifies each message with a mail system type to ensure delivery. If your mailbox is not empty before you change drivers, Mail does not send the message because no available driver supports the mail system those messages require.

Because the message remains in your Outbox, each time you exit Mail Remote for Windows, Mail prompts you to send the mail waiting in your Outbox. You must reload the driver you used to create the waiting messages to send them.
