what is outbox in outlook

The Outbox in Microsoft Outlook is a temporary storage location where emails are held until they are sent successfully. When an email is sent, it moves from the Outbox to the Sent Items folder. If an email message cannot be sent, it will remain in the Outbox until it is manually deleted or resent. The Outbox folder should be located in your email accounts mailbox. If you are experiencing an issue where emails remain in the Outbox folder, it may be because the "Send immediately when connected" option is not enabled. In this case, you will need to manually initiate a Send/Receive operation to send the email.
