I can not delete messages in my outbox of Windows Mail

Hello there!

I have certain email that have being sent but now a copy remains in my
outbox of my windows mail but everytime I try to delete them I get an error!

Does anybody knows how to delete this emails?? I have tried Shift+Delte does
not work, ATD + E then delete does not work!

Anybody knows how to solve this anoying problem?????

I just finally found the link and there is a hotfix that will let you delete
the emails. when the error message comes up click on the help hyperlink at
the bottom and the first set of questions go down to about the 3rd one where
there is a link to the hotfix. It took me about 3 weeks to find. You would
think Microsoft could afford to be more userfriendly and send the fixes out
automatically or at least make them easier to find.

Try this Microsoft fix:

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/941090
"Messages may be stuck in the Outbox when you use Windows Mail on a
computer that is running Windows Vista"

That page offers two download options. Unless you know for sure
you have 64-bit Vista, use the 32-bit option.

I was moving a spam detected messages from the inbox to the junkmail folder.
I accidently got them in the outbox. The are trying to be sent to trend
security, but will go nowhere. How can I get rid of them?

Uninstall Trend security. It has no business messing with your email.
