Microsoft Outlook

HI. I have tried to send a file in Outlook (Hotmail) and it is stuck on 50% sending. It will not complete, regardless of time. I am not able to delete this file (selecting then delete, right click and delete, draging to the bin, going 'off-line' then deleting, moving to another file etc etc etc) and because of this I am not able to send/receive due to this 'stuck' email. I have uninstalled the programme and re-installed it - but the email is still there... Any ideas?? Trev (cheers)

what kind of file is it? just a normal email or an executable?

Normal, with an MP3 attatchment! Cheers...

its probably something to do with the attachment, they can sometimes cause problems when sending emails

is it not possible to send it using www.hotmail.com other than using outlook express, it might be an idea.

I can't get it to move to hotmail or delete or anything. That's me prob! It's just trying to send - but doesn't...

In Microsoft Outlook under 'All Mail Folders' I have 'Personal Folders', 'Archive Folders and 'Hotmail'. I prepared this email as normal (Hotmail) but it is sat in the outbox under 'Personal Folders'. Hope this info may give someone an idea!!
