problem...

[exciter]

When I am sending an email with an attachment of size 11mb for instance,
I can not cancel the transmission.
When I try to open the concerning message in the outbox, outlook says
you can not open the item, it is being transmitted...

Nor can I delete it.

I hate this problem and cant solve it.
Please guide me.

Running against Exchange server or with a local data file?

Remove your internet cable, what ever it is, form the network card so that
you will not have an internet connection. Restart outlook, you'll receive a
message that you don't have internet connection and etc, now go to your
outbox folder and delete the message.

local data file...
Can not delete the item. Nothign happens when I push the cross sign on the
toolbar.
Cant get rid of the email.
Dont know what to do.

Ok I have disabled netwrok connection then it worked.
But this is not a practical solution.
Anyways thank you Russ and Vitalie.

open ol in offline mode

I also did that and it did not help

Create a new Outlook profile with no transports. Open your Outlook Data
File. Delete the item from your Outbox.

I also did that and it did not help

Did you close and restart Outlook after selecting File>Work Offline?

Russ can you explain this once again because I am not very good in outlook
and could not understand what you mean.
Thank you in advance.

Sure, but you need to tell me what version of Outlook you are using. For
most just follow the directions below, only do _not_ create any mail
accounts. Then just open the Outlook Data File that has the stuck message
and delete the message from the Outbox:
