That is usually the case. Outlook (and express) have a size limit on their
local mailstores. The clients send, try to copy to their sent items, fail on
the copy, and send again on the next scheduled run.
And you can't e-mail them to tell them, because they can't get their incoming
mail either because of the same problem.
