This morning I logged onto my computer, after a welcome break of 36 hours from the machine, and was surprised to find a new version of Outlook apparently in place. A problem soon emerged, however, in that while I’m receiving emails as usual, any emails I tried to send went straight into the ‘Drafts’ folder, from where repeated attempts to send them failed.

I raised the matter with Microsoft Technical Support, and the end of a 30-minute-long exchange is here. Long story short, I may not be able to send emails from my computer until next Monday, maybe even later. In the meantime I’ll have to use my smartphone.
