Sending Large email error

Jackie

I am trying to delete a email which I have tried sending
to a recipient but it's too big.
Every time I log onto Outlook Express 6 it's trys to re-
send this message. It drives me potty.
Can anyone help me delete it?
Thanks.

Try disconnecting from the internet before you load the
program. When it tries to connect, hit "Work Offline".
Then you can go into your Outbox and delete the message,
which will send it to the Deleted Items file. Close the
program and then reopen. That should take care of it.
Good luck!

It should be in your Outbox. Open Outlook Express, cancel the send/receive,
then click on your Outbox and delete the message.

If you can't see the Outbox click on View | Layout, check the Folder List
box and click OK.

If OE won';t let you delete it from the Outbox, close OE and search for
outbox.dbx and delete it. Outlook Express will make a new one when you
restart.
