Interrupting a send
I feel like there should be a newsgroup titled microsoft.stupid.
I just tried sending myself a 500Mb email (to a different computer) rather than writing a disk. Even though I have a broad-band connection, it is clogging everything up. It has been sending for a couple of hours now and is slowing the system down. I tried cancelling the Send/Recieve, but that doesn't work. I tried closing Outlook (and letting it be improperly closed) I disconnect from the network. When I restart Outlook, it begins the send again. Ideas?

Interrupting a send
Once it's been submitted to the MAPI transport that's what you get. The
workaround is to create a different profile that uses a different PST file and then open that original PST from the new profile. You can then delete the item from Outbox. -- Ken Slovak [MVP - Outlook] http://www.slovaktech.com Author: Absolute Beginner's Guide to Microsoft Office Outlook 2003 Reminder Manager, Extended Reminders, Attachment Options http://www.slovaktech.com/products.htm "Charles Kenyon" wrote in message ...

Thank you for the quick reply. It turned out that putting my computer to
sleep (it is a laptop) broke the connection enough to let me delete the offending email from my outbox.
