Use the Clear Outbox function of WMUtil:
http://www.oehelp.com/WMUtil
Be sure to read all the directions for that program.

And follow them! ;-)

I tried this but the "Clear Outbox" function is not active. Maybe I'm doing
something wrong.

Gary,
Thank you, that worked perfectly!
I still don't understand why the problem arose, but grateful to be abe to
communicate once again

Yes. Not reading and following the instruction.

Try again.

We theorize that this problem happens because WM is overly sensitive
to interference from antivirus programs. McAfee and Norton antivirus
are especially bad in this regard, and for continued WM health, those
two AV programs should be uninstalled and replaced by a less intrusive
antivirus. The free version of Avast is good:

Be sure to read and follow ALL the directions on the WMUtil site,
especially the part in the big red box that says:

"If Windows Mail is open, or if a current WinMail.exe process is running, the Database functions are disabled, and the WinMail.exe
process must be terminated before these features can become available. (If WinMail is closed and these buttons still remain
disabled, then perform a CTRL-SHIFT-ESC, and under Processes find WinMail.exe and click on it, and then click the End Process
button."

I should add that on the Processes tab of Task Manager, use the
option to "Show processes from all users".

Thank you. I disabled WinMail.exe and it worked perfectly.

Thanks for the feedback. Instructions can be quite useful. ;-)
