Cannot delete a message in my outbox

[Jim]

I have 3 emails in my oubox that cannot be deleted or
sent. I already reinstalled outlook and the messages are
still in my outbox. When I hit the Send/Receive icon it
says "The MAPI Spooler has already begun transmitting this
message...error 0x80040114"

Thanks,
Jim

Which version of Outlook? Do you have SPs installed?

OK, here's a really wacky idea to try:
- File menu > New > PST file
- Give the new PST a temporary name
- Click OK to the new dialog
- right-click on the root of the new set of folders
- choose Properties
- Select "Deliver POP Mail ...."
- Click OK

Quit & Restart Outlook

Once Outlook restarts, expand your previous set of folders and delete the
bad message from the Outbox.

- Right click on the root of your original set of folders
- Choose Properties
- Select "Deliver POP Mail ..."
- Click OK

Quit & Restart Outlook

Hopefully all will be well after this...
