How do I cancel an email with large attachment?

I have a strange situation and need experts to help.

I tried to send an email with large file (24M). Stupid of me to do that. I
have Outlook 2007 and the backend is Hotmail (connected by Outlook
Connector). The email was sent and was out of Outbox. However, it keeps
getting time-out error and keeps reschedule itself for delivery. Certainly,
it can't delivery due to its size and kept getting time-out error since
yesterday. Does anyone know how to delete the sending? By the way, the
email is NOT in the "Sent Items" folder nor in the Outbox.

Thanks a ton. Problem solved. Outlook 2007 has slightly different command
structure; however, the basic is the same and the instructions worked
perfectly...

And with this small piece of VBA you can control that it never happens
again, just copy it into ThisOutlookSession, maybe modify the value for
MAX_ITEM_SIZE, and restart Outlook:
