- Check if the Email Attachment tab contains a path to a file, and if so, check that the file exists and you can access it.
- If the layout name has more than one full stop at the end, either remove the full stops or apply the default email settings to the layout.
- Check that the Outlook signature being used isn't linking to image files that have since been removed.
- If the signature includes a large image, reduce the image size.
- Check that your Outlook mailbox is not overloaded. Consider deleting older sent items or items that are no longer needed.
- Try configuring the email settings as SMTP instead of Microsoft Outlook. Ensure the Sending options are set to Send emails immediately.
- Try creating a new custom report setting.
- If the issue occurs when emailing any report or layout and you've completed all the other steps in this article, an uninstall and reinstall of Microsoft Office may be necessary while logged in as the administrator on your computer. For assistance with this, please contact your IT administrator.
