Click on Outbox or Drafts, whichever contains it, then the message, then the
red X to the right of Forward.

If it refuses to delete, download and install this fix, with Windows Mail
not
running:

Although it's labelled as for mail stuck in the Outbox, it also works in
other folders. If you don't know whether to use the 32-bit version or
the 64-bit version, try the 32-bit version first. Certain common
antivirus programs, such as most versions from Norton or McAfee,
or a recent version from Trend, tend to cause such problems,
although seldom immediately, so if you have such a program,
remember where to find the fix - you are likely to need it again.
