Email stuck in Outlook Outbox November 6 2006
Q: I was trying to send a digital photo as an attachment when I realized that it got stuck in my Outbox [in Outlook]. I tried Clicking the Send/Receive to send the email without success. I even tried to delete it, but it still remains in my Outbox. How can I get rid of it?
A: This problem happens usually if you try to send an email with a large attachment like a digital photo (maybe 5MB or more). Well if you ever find yourself in this situation, here's what you can do:
-Take MS Outlook offline
- Open MS Outlook
- File > Work Offline
- Shut down Outlook
- Unplug your network cable from your computer (or turn off your wireless card)
-Delete the stuck email
- Open MS Outlook
- Open your 'Outbox' folder
- Find and Delete the stuck email
-Permanently delete the stuck email
- Open your 'Deleted Items' folder
- Find and Delete the stuck email
-Change MS Outlook to Online
- File > Work Online
If this doesn't work, then repeat these steps and restart your computer after step 4.
That's it! |
