I am using Outlook 2007. I received an email with a PDF attachment. I tried
to forward the attachment and the email is stuck in my outbox. I can't send
it and I can't delete it. I can't open it either. The message says that
Outlook is trying to send the email. That has been going on for 4 weeks now
with the email still stuck in the outbox. Any suggestions?
 
In Outlook go Offline and then try to delete the message while offline
 
Your outlook need to be repaired.You can try a tool called Advanced Outlook Repair. You can download a free demo version at http://www.datanumen.com/aor/aor.exe . I think it is a useful repair tool for you. It is easy to recover your PST file by using its wizard. It is a powerful tool to recover messages, folders and other objects from corrupt or damaged Microsoft Outlook PST files.

Detailed information about Advanced Outlook Repair can be found at http://www.datanumen.com/aor/

My emails have gotten stuck in the outbox too. However, just deleting them
is not an option. I need them to be sent. Any other suggestions?

Thank you,
 
Hmmmm...maybe a little too tekky for me? I had no idea which file to choose
when I downloaded the free version repair. When I chose outlook pst - it
found like 10 files but some of them didn't have an "extension" that said
outlook. Some of the extensions said "documents". Would I only choose all
outlook extensions or all 10 of the files? Archive too?

Thanks
 
Do not Highjack someone elses thread, create your own!

You need to empty the Outbox before you can send again

I suggest that you copy the text in the stuck emails and paste them into a file of
your choice then empty the Outbox as I posted. Then start new emails and copy\paste
the emails that you copied and saved to a location of your choice back into the new
emails
 
That worked perfectly! Thanks.
