cannot delete or move message from outbox

[Guest]

This worked for me having tried several of the other suggestions
Thanks Morti
Watch out where to back up your files/messages etc.
My back up disappeared for some reason - but WM recreated a recovered
messages folder where all my stuff is - minus the un-deletables!

I found a download that fixed my same problem. First, go to
support.microsoft.com.
On this page there will appear two search windows. Go to the one that says
"Kb".
Type in 941090. That will take you to a page where you can download and run
a file that fixed the problem I had. I ran the program/patch, restarted my
computer, opened my e-mail, went to the file I couldn't delte and it deleted.
I can send mail again!

I have been reading and following all of these posts for weeks now. I have
tried several of the suggestions, but this is the first one that has worked.
(I had problems with not being able to see any of my messages in the beta
email program). Thank you so much. I have an empty deleted email box now.

You are quoting a very old response. Much has changed since then.
Use the new Microsoft fix:

Is MSFT eventually coming out with a permanent patch to fix this problem
relating to INBOX email deletion? Thank you

 

[Gary VanderMolen]

Whether permanent patches will be released for WM, no one knows
for sure, or at least they're not talking. In the WLM newsgroup, one
Microsoft developer promised continued future 'support' for WM,
but reading between the lines, I took it to mean security fixes only.
Microsoft will have to commit one way or the other by the time
SP1 for Vista is finalized.

They did:

that is running Windows Vista

It also works on other folders.

outbox without any problems to the WinMail system.

For stuck messages, have you tried the Microsoft fix:

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/941090/en-us

NOTE: The title of the KB article says Outbox, but the fix will also work for
messages stuck in other Windows Mail folders.

This is blocking all messages, both new and reply messages and is therefore
urgent that I fix this. the error message is " an unknown error has
occurred".
