the message has a huge attachment and evidently times out on sending.
i want to delete it and not send. The system won't allow me to do that.

Open the email, close it, and then try to delete. If that doesn't work, check

i finally was able to use the MDBVU32. The message I'm trying to delete was
in the process of being sent. I was unable to remove it with MDBvu32. Any
other suggestions?

Did you try opening the email, closing it, and then highlighting it and
clicking the delete button? Are you perhaps working on offline mode? Please
advise what version of Outlook you use.

ver 2003. When i try to open a box tells me "can't open this message. Outlook
has already started transmitting this message." I have tried playing in both
on line and off line mode.

After you choose offline mode, shut Outlook down then open it up again. Then
try to delete the message.

It is a good morning...the "stuck" email is gone. This am i disconnected the
internet cable and tried to open the email. i got the same message as
before. it was in the process of transmitting. Although I had tried before I
tried again to send it to another folder. It would not allow me to do that.
So for lack of something else I tried to click and drag it. I was able to
drag it to the "drafts" file and delete it.
i really thank you for your help and patience. That problem certainly was an
irritant.
Thanks again....... The Old Man :>)
