Why cant I send offline messages?

Hi, I had the same problem for no apparent reason yesterday. I did do the Microsoft update which was for Internet Explorer so I was thinking it might have been something to do with that? Anyway I have been able to fix it and all I did was on the windows messenger window (Which has your picture, contact details etc) I clicked on Tools, then options, then Connection, then advanced settings. This brings up a page which has 3 Test options. All I did was click on those and it tests the connection etc. It should say that the connection is ok etc. I then tried to send a msg (Both to someone online and offline) and they went through fine. Ive no idea why this happenned in the 1st place but my friend had the same problem. She has just done the above and hers works fine again now! So try that if your still having trouble with " The following message could not be delivered to all recipients:". Hope that fixes it for you.

It isn't working for me today (01/29/09) either.

I'm so glad someone else asked. I didn't get an answer to my question so I thought it was just me. I'm also having the same problem and apparently my friend seems to be having the same one now. It has happened before and it was a server issue so we'll just have to wait.

hi ►Do you use a router? Or a standalone modem? If you use a router, then you can do a couple of things.. 1) Check to see if your connection is dropping/disconnecting at all. There should be a 'Connection Info' sort of thing in your router's page, and you can check the uptime of your connection there. This probably isn't the problem though. 2) If you know how to open a port on your router (check www.portforward.com for router specific guides), open these and forward them to your PC/laptop's IP: MSNMessenger (TCP) 1863 MSN Files (TCP/UDP) 6891 - 6900 MSN Voice (TCP/UDP) 6901 ►or if you use vistaa, update it ♥¸.•*¨*`•.♥ï ђøρε ï ђεlρεḋ♥¸.•*¨*`•.¸♥ ::: (\(\ *: (=' :') :* •..

I'm having the same problem. I cannot send offline messages to MSN accounts, but Yahoo accounts seem to be alright. I guess it's a server problem or something :/
