"Sending Message X of X " - Huh??

[Ken]

Office OL 2007.

I just upgraded to OL2007, and have noticed something strange: When I send a
message, the little status bar at the lower right-hand corner that says
"Sending Message X of X" says "Sending Message 5 of 5" even if I'm sending
only 1 message. It says that if I send 2 messages also. (I haven't tried
sending 5 or 6 at a single shot.)

My "Sent Items" folder shows only the single message being sent.

Makes me queasy....as if I'm sending copies of my email to parts unknown!

Any ideas?

Thanks.

I just upgraded to OL2007,

Did you start with a new mail profile?

No, I didn't. After I installed the upgrade, and started OL2007 for the
first time, OL chugged along "importing preferences" (or some such
voodoo....)

It's often a good idea to create a new mail profile when upgrading.

What did you see when you looked in the Outbox using the instructions on the
web page I cited?

I have exactly the same problem but I did set up a new profile. Any ideas?
