Dear all,

I accidentally got a huge email which is 55MB in size, and the email finally
got downloaded to my local harddisk in "inbox". Since it is the only unread
message in the "inbox", whenever I start outlook, it will default to show
that message then the computer become completely dead and no
responding...(100% CPU occupancy on outlook and task manager shows "not
responding", and after 40 minutes, it is still in this dead mode...)

If I kill outlook, and restart it again, it says it cannot start in safemode
and then did a "WINDOWS OFFICE XP AUTO RECOVERY" and then outlook can start,
but after it gets into outlook, it once again defaulted to read that huge
message and got stucked...

Can anybody help me? How to delete that message?(once again, I already
deleted on the server side, but it stays locally in my "inbox" on
harddisk...)

Thanks a lot,

-Walala
 
Disconnect from internet and then delete the message. If you aren't plugged
in it wont attempt the DL
