Outlook 2010 Cannot Send this item

Occasionally I have a very select set of users that would call in unable to send emails.  When they click send they get "Cannot send this item".  Simply copy pasting the contents into a new email would fix.

The common response on the internet is "switch to rich text", which I view as a workaround and at that one I don't like.

Thomas Vuylsteke posted this and has a great solution...  Look at your network and ensure that you're not having network issues.

In my case it appears to have been due to Linksys devices at a few select desktops.
