  • Microsoft Outlook 2002

This article was previously published under Q280948

SYMPTOMS

If you send yourself a message through an account other than a Microsoft Exchange Server account, for example a Hotmail account, and you then attempt to open the message and send it again from the Hotmail Inbox, Outlook does not recognize you as the original sender of the message. You may receive the following error message:
You do not appear to be the original sender of this message. Are you sure you want to resend it?
When you click Yes, the Resend compose window appears.

CAUSE

This issue can occur because the message you are trying to send again is not the original item and because your profile contains an Exchange account.

RESOLUTION

To resolve this issue, open the Sent Items folder in your Exchange mailbox, and then send the message again from there.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article.
