Click File and check Work Offline. Stop and restart Outlook. Delete the
message. Click File and uncheck Work Offline.

You can enable diagnostic logging and see what's happening between the
Outlook and the server. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/831053/en-us

I have sent mail and reply mail stuck in my outbox. When I open a message
and look at options, it shows delay message clicked and always today (current
day) at 5:00pm. This began happening a few days ago. I could not delete them
either.

I just ran a check and it is now working. I went to something that was a
utility to repair email server problems and it could not locate an encrypted
server but did find and "repaired" an unencrypted server connection. I just
deleted the messages stuck in the outbox. I don't have a clue about what
happened but it has been a very frustrating experience.
