Large file attachment locks Outlook up

I sent a large batch of pictures to someone (31 MB) and accidentally mistyped their ISPs name. So now I've got a MAILER-DAEMON return that's (you guessed it...) 31 MB big. The problem is that every time I try to select that email to delete it from my Inbox it locks Outlook up completely. I've tried right-clicking on it to get a pop-up menu to delete it and also using the cursor keys to cycle through the emails to select it. All attempts produce the same results: Outlook locks up and I've got to close it completely and restart to be able to do anything.

I'm using Outlook 2003 on a Win2K machine (P4 1.8ghz - 128 MB Ram). Is there any way to clean this thing out of there?

Thanks in advance for any help you can give!
 
Are you attaching to an Exchange server. Try exchng32.exe.
