Can I stop sending an email with an attachment which is too large

I attempeted to send an email with a very large attachment ( I forgot they
were PDF files I was attaching). Now I can't delete this 14MB email from my
outbound box because I've already hit send. I've let the computer sit for
hours hoping that the send process would complete, but I have had no success.
Is there a way to cancel this email? I read an earlier post which made
mention of moving files. I'm not familiar with that process and would prefer
to avoid that route. If that is indeed the solution, please provide details.
Thanks.

Thanks Roady - option 3 did the trick! And much to my surprise, I did not
screw up my email. Thanks again for the quick reply.
