Last night I sent an email with photos. This morning "still sending".
I tried to delete the Email from Outbox, unsuccessful.
I would like to know how to delete, cancel or remove this Email from Outbox.
Please advise.
Thank you.

First deal with the Outbox. Their is also a chance of Sent Items being
corrupted. If there is still a problem sending after deleting the
Outbox.dbx file the Sent Items.dbx file may also be corrupted.
Important: to save the messages in the Sent Items folder move them to a
new user created local folder in OE. Deleting the Sent Items.dbx file
will result in the messages in this folder being deleted.

Start with the Outbox only.
Test sending before suspecting Sent Items corruption.

To resolve this behavior, rename or delete the Outbox.dbx file:
Close Outlook Express before renaming or deleting a DBX file.

Click Start, point to Find, and then click Files or Folders.
In the Named box, type Outbox.dbx.
In the Look in box, click your primary hard disk (usually drive C), and
then click Find Now. You may need to include hidden files and folders
for your search.
Right-click the Outbox.dbx file that appears, and then click Rename. It
is okay to delete the file instead.
Type Outbox.old, and then click OK.
Restart Outlook Express to rebuild the Outbox.dbx file, and then send a
message.

Open the Store Folder Alternative

1. In Outlook Express click on Tools, Options, Maintenance tab...Store
Folder.
2. Place the cursor at the left of the text of the path to the folder.
3. Drag the cursor to the right until the text scrolls to the end.
4. Right-click on the text and choose Copy.
5. In the Start, Run box right-click Paste. Click OK to open the store
folder.

Using Keyboard Shortcuts for the Open the Store Folder Alternative

An even easier method when opening that page is to use the Tab to
highlight the folder location, then Ctrl+C and close OE, then use
Start/Run
and Ctrl+V. Same caveat about hidden files applies but can be easily
modified in Explorer by using Tools/Folder Options.

Dear Tim K.

You did again. Outlook Express, Outbox, is working very good.

Thank you very much for your help.
