I can send emails to this recipient or myself or others but I have an
eMail stuck in the Outbox and there seems to be no way to force it to
go. Is there a way to force it.

I Redirected that eMail in the Outbox to one recipient and it went (the
original eMail still sits in the Outbox). The original recipient was
myself and the same one other. I can send (in all cases using the
Contacts list) to myself, the other but not myself and the other for
this one eMail. I have sent other eMails with the same recipients
before with no problems.

Since it did go with one recipient, then I cannot see that it has
anything to do with the eMail contents, like bad copy paste characters
or whatever. There is a copy paste link in that eMail.

Suggestions, experiments .... Please.

I have observed the same behavior on Linux and Windows builds, 32 and 64
bits, sending either IMAP mail or NNTP messages, since at least 12.00. The
problem is infrequent, intermittent, and I have been unable to reproduce
it at will, which is why I've never accumulated enough information to file
a useful bug report. Opening the message for editing and pressing the send
button sometimes breaks the logjam and sends it on its way.

@BeeJ: If you don't get any joy here, you might consider asking on
opera.mail+news, which would be a more appropriate newsgroup.

(Update 2 hours later: Ironically, this message is suffering this very
issue.)
