Hi Andy,

You had apparently sent this message just as I was writing my latest 
note on the matter this morning.

To synopsize, some months ago, just for a lark, I composed a test 
message within Entourage (which comes with OSX) just to see how it worked.
(I regularly use another app for a mail and web server.)

Well, foolish me, I had not completed the set-up for Entourage, so it 
didn't know what to do with the 'test' message I'd made up.

So, each time something activates Entourage, it looks around and finds 
that unsent test message, and tries to send it.

That periodic "Sending Mail" message/beep was merely Entourage trying to 
do it's thing, albeit unsuccessfully.

Problem solved!

Thanks for your help.
