I composed an email in my Outlook Express that consisted of lots of mp3
files and it was larger than I realized. When I tried sending it, it
"hung up" and wouldn't send the message. (I have DSL.) The mesage is
now in my out box and I tried to delete it, but when I click on it my
computer freezes before it will open. I tried doing a receive only,
but I got this message.

Your server has unexpectedly terminated the connection. Possible causes
for this include server problems, network problems, or a long period of
inactivity.

Error Number: 0x800CCC0F

Is there any way to find this message and delete it outside of the OE
program or what can I do to fix huge problem I've created for myself?

Thanks in advance
Maggie
