I am having the same problem. Microsoft has not come up with a solution yet?
I have a message that is undeletable, un sendable and un moveable in my
outbox. cannot send any messages using windows mail. VERY FRUSTRATING!

That's a very old message you are quoting. Much has happened
since then. Steve Cochran has developed a fix for the stuck Outbox
problem. Download, install and run his WMUtil program:
http://www.oehelp.com/WMUtil
Be sure to read and follow the directions on that download page.

Should you have future problems with Windows Mail, consider
upgrading to the replacement email program being offered by
Microsoft:

Microsoft has a fix, but they're still testing it, so you have to call and
ask. You should not be charged.
Messages may be stuck in the Outbox when you use Windows Mail on a computer
that is running Windows Vista

Why do you ask?
Why would you want to get something that you don't even know
what it is?

I just had to go to MS and downloaded this patch (Update for Windows Vista
(KB941090)) we'll see if it works.

I have had this problem and I sent it to my internet email and deleted that
way. It worked today! I have a question, how do I move folders from
internet email to Windows Mail?

That depends on what you mean by the somewhat nebulous term
"internet email."

I had this problem today for the first time, with an email from a safe
source. The answer below didn't work on my system, but I found when I dragged
the message to the deleted items folder I could then delete it normally. Hope
this works.

Just want to say THANK YOU..... This was very frustrating. Can't wait for
MS to fix this bug or whatever.

What I mean is Comcast internet explorer and I have an email address set up
there also.
PS I am a novice at this but this worked for me!
