Unsent Emails

[davieG]

Hi I have an email in my out box that is preventing 3 other emails from being
despatched. This email with it's original text has already been sent but this
rogue version resides in my outbox and contains the following message instead
of my original text.

Message could not be displayed
Windows Mail encountered an unexpected problem while displaying this
message. Check your computer for low memory or low disk space and try again.

When I try to delete it I just get: An unknown error has occurred.

Regards

John

It works for all folders, not just the Outbox.

Steve - I am having this problem with my Deleted Items folder. I have
downloaded the '941090' patch and am currently attempting to install it. It
has been in a "Searching for updates....." mode for about 25 minutes. Is
this normal??
