Outlook 2002 won't send as TS Client

I just set up a Windows Server 2003 as a terminal server. I installed Office XP Pro. When I try to send a mail from Outlook XP through a SMTP server (working fine) the mail stalls and times out at the point the data is requested. Outlook Express works fine.
If the same user logs on to a standard workstation using Office XP installed identically to the Terminal Server (using the same Group Policy) mail gets sent no problem.

The email server is running on Windows 2000 Advanced Server that is also running the 2003 TS Server as a virtual machine.

Anyone got any ideas? I'm stumped.

Does the profile/account for the TS user have rights to send email ect and does the TS user account actually have a mailbox, are you accessing the TS account using one set of details and then accessing you email on another set of details? this may be the problem, assuming that you can send email from this server at all.

I don't know what "rights to send email" is. Is this to do with Exchange? I am not using it anyhow.
By "details" do you mean POP3 usr and password? I am using the same User/pass and the authentication with the mail server works fine - just no data is sent and the session times out.
