Send/Receive Status 50%" remains stuck at 50%? Also when sending and
receiving it is synchronizing hea.... (Headers?) P.S. I just started using
Outlook to send pictures? As I have been unable to send them through MSN? I

How big are the pictures? If very large and you are on dial-up, Outlook may
appear to be stuck at 50% but it is taking a long time to download. What
happens if you allow it to keep running? Does it eventually complete?

The pictures are in the range of 600 kb to 900 kb. Also they are jpeg files?
Not Bmpt. I have allowed it to continue to run for over 15 min. I was logged

Don't email photos. E-mail *links* to web pages where you've *uploaded* the
photos. Yahoo Photos, DigitalFridge, Ofoto, etc etc etc. You will make
yourself and your recipients much happier if you don't send big huge email
attachments.
