Can't delete message that is "sending"

dsteinhil · #1 03-26-2011, 06:39 PM

Hi,

I tried to send a message with a big attachment the other day (154MB) and the message got stalled in mid-send somehow. Now Outlook won;t let me delete the message and it's clogging up my outbox.
Does anyone know how to abort the send process and delete the message?

Thanks!

You can take Outlook offline and then delete the message.

That did the trick. Thanks again!
