I was trying to send an e-mail with an attachment. It is
taking too long to send and blocking my incoming messages.
I would like to delete this message, but outlook gives me
a message that "Can't open this item. MAPI Spooler has
already begun transmitting." I have also selected the
message and hit delete, but it does nothing.

Does anyone know how to delete it?
 
Place Outlook in offline mode (File-> Work Offline) and restart Outlook. Try
to delete it now and place Outlook online again.

Hope this helps!
 
Could be, are you on an Exchange as well? If I remember well; go to Tools->
Services-> select Microsoft Exchange Server-> Properties-> tab Advanced->
select Enable offline use. Press OK and OK once more to close the open
windows.

When you restart Outlook there should be an option to work offline under
File.

Hope this helps!
