Check which program is giving you this message. If it's Outlook, you're
likely
to get a better answer in newsgroup:

microsoft.public.outlook.general

If it's the Windows Mail program, download and install this hotfix, with
Windows
Mail not running:

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/941090

Although it's labelled as for mail stuck in the Outbox, it also works in
other folders. If you don't know whether you have a 32-bit version of
Vista or a 64-bit version, try the hotfix for the 32-bit version first
Certain common antivirus programs, such as most of those from
Norton or McAfee, tend to cause stuck messages and other problems
in Windows Mail, although seldom immediately, so if you have such a
program, remember where to find the hotfix and hope it will install
again if you need it again. A recent version of the Trend antivirus
program also causes assorted problems in Windows Mail.

The Vista SP1 update also contains this hotfix, but takes longer to
install.
