Large file attachment locks Outlook up

Guest

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!
