The KB941090 update will just fix the problem for now. You must stop the cause to prevent it from happening again. Read the "First" section in this tutorial about antivirus and anti-spyware/adware programs to help prevent this from happening again, then install the KB941090 Microsoft Update in the "Second" section to fix the stuck message problem.

Windows Mail not running: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/941090 Although it's labelled as for mail stuck in the Outbox, it also works in other folders. If you don't know whether to use the 32-bit version or the 64-bit version, try the 32-bit version first. Certain common antivirus programs, such as most of those from Norton and McAfee, tend to cause this type of problem and others in Windows Mail, although seldom immediately, so if you have such a program, remember where to find the fix and hope it will install again if you need it again. A recent version of the Trend antivirus program also causes assorted problems in Windows Mail. If this restores your ability to delete such messages, and you want to empty the Deleted Items folder, click on Edit, then Empty 'Deleted Items' Folder. |
