Yet another Outlook issue: Sending 1 of …
Came across an Outlook 2003 issue today that I’ve only seen one previous time. Basically, Outlook functions normally but in the right corner of the status bar, it lists sending 1 of x number of messages. However, there are no messages in the outbox. If you see this you probably have some “Read Receipts” that are trying to be sent.
The resolution isn’t for the faint of heart but it really isn’t complicated. You have to download MDBVU32.EXE from Microsoft which allows you to delete items from the Outlook data store (PST file) that you cannot see in the Outlook client.
How-to-Outlook has a great tutorial on the process
