Opera Mail keeps sending messages
I have multiple mail accounts and opera was working fine until I had some problems with port 25 (it was caused by ISP) so I switched to 587 and I can send messages again, but I got this problem.For some reason I get progress bar showing me "Sending Messages..." even that I didn't set any message to be sent. It happens on every about 10 minutes. It doesn't last long (about 20sec) and overall sent data is about 0.5MB.
Can someone help me with this?
Can I somehow see what messages are on queue and delete them?
Deleting accounts and again setting them up I don't consider as best solution, but if that is needed...
Thanks for any help in forward
Welcome to the My Opera community!
If you look in "All messages/Outbox", you should be able to see queued messages as long as "view -> show -> show sent" is checked for that message list.
But, if nothing is there, I'd log the outgoing connection and at least see what data Opera is sending.
You can this:
Set the Mail Database Consistency Check Time to 0, save the change and restart Opera. Choose OK to perform the maintenance. The number will reset to a high number after the restart, so don't worry about that.
, but I don't know if it'll help with this situation.
If these are IMAP accounts, then that would be really easy at least.

I am trying to determine if my opera mail is being hijacked in any way and followed the procedure in the "log" link above to the LogMail advice.
I added the "Outgoing Log File={Home}Desktop/accountN_outlog.txt" for a number of email accounts, changing the "N" to the respective account number.
After sending some test messages, the log files are not being created on my desktop and I also searched my C drive to see if they were being saved somewhere else with no success.
Creating the Log File seems pretty straight forward - what am I missing?

Thank you very much 
I had 8 e-mails in outbox, but the thing is that I hided "All Messages" from list and was unable to see that (totally forgot about it)
They were unable to send for some reason (I guess that old port was saved per message).
I deleted them and now problem is solved.
Thanks again

Put in a path like "C:\Documents and Settings\username\Desktop\accountN_log.txt". And, make sure you edit accounts.ini while Opera is closed and save your changes.
