Windows 10: Unable to send emails from Windows 10 Mail app

My Windows 10 Livemail sends all my outgoing emails to Outbox. Optusnet email is working on internet (webmail) and tests on Windows 10 has provided messages that all settings are correct. Any ideas on what is going wrong here??

Office 2013 Mail Merge sending no emails

I used to have no problems sending a Mail merge on Windows 7, however, trying to do one today on Windows 10, and it's simply not working.

I've done everything the same, using an excel document as the data source, and that works fine. When I select Finish & Merge -> Send Email Documents and then OK, Word makes it appear it worked (all the dynamic values change to those of the contacts as it cycles through sending each email), but that's it. Not one email is sent; nothing in my sent items and nothing shows that any of those contacts have been email on our exchange or email archive software.

I've seen that people suggest that Outlook is my default app (it is). Double checked the registry key as well Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Clients\Mail\(Default) has the value Microsoft Outlook.

I've literally done nothing different from when doing this on Windows 7; seems that the searches seem to suggest that it's a common problem as well, but everyone seems to say they had a problem and disappears from their support request (and most answer tell you to check the above registry key).

 

Unable to send emails from Windows 10 Mail app

hi joy, thanks for replying. I ran the troubleshooter and it didn't find anything wrong. I also made sure the" show notificatioin the action center" was turned on, it was . I added a new e-mail account in the mail and calendar app and sent an e-mail and
it worked fine. the problem must be with the email account that I added first, its an old sprintmail.com account from earthlink which is what I use mostly. it did work fine on my 8.1 computer when I upgraded to windows 10. don't know what the problem is on
this new computer. if you have any other suggestions I would appreciate it. thanks again.....dennis
