I tried to send an email that was 9MB after attachments.
Nearly a week later, it's still in my Outbox trying to be
sent. I can't delete, cut, or move it into another
folder. I use Outlook with Hotmail.I tried removing the
email account from Outlook and deleting, but that didn't
work either. Any sugguestions?
 
Disable your smtp server

Go into Tools-> Email accounts. Select "View or Change". Select your smtp outbound, change the name to a bogus server name (ie. change .com to .comx). Restart outlook. When the send receive fails you can delete your message. Remeber to change your SMTP server back!
