can't delete big message from outbox folder!!

[Juan Cuesta]

hi, i'm using Outlook Express, but i attach to a message a
big file (24MB) by mistake, so, when i try to get to my
outbox folder to try to delete it from there, outlook
hangs,, i have left it to work about 15 minutes, but still
getting nothing,,,,, is there a way to get rid of that
message from the outgoing mail? (outbox)

Close OE, look for outbox.dbx. Delete that file and restart OE.

In the future use:
microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie6_outlookexpress
for questions relating to OE.
