E-mails are stuck in the outlook

Hi everybody,
When i send E-mails through SQL Mail, they end up in the inbox of MS Outlook
account. Only when i press 'send' mails are sent. I have Microsoft Outlook
2002. I have configured my Hotmail account in it as i don't have MS Exchange
.
I have SQL Server 2000 with Service Pack 3. And my machine is windows 2000
with service pack 4. What could be the reason and what are the remedies?
thanks in advance
