Vista - Large attachment of photo's

Foolishly, I have tried to send a message with many photo's attached without
zipping them. Consiquently the message has not been delivered. Now I cannot
delete or cancel it. If I open the Outbox & click on the e-mail subject, the
screen goes faint.
I have Norton 360 installed and the Vista Firewall enabled.
I cannot send other messages. The faulty one is first in the queue.

I'm not sure that zipping would have made much
difference because if the images are JPEGs they
are already highly compressed. Best bet would be
to send fewer pictures or upload them to a picture
sharing site and send your recipients the link for
viewing them.

Maybe this link will offer some ideas:

Hi,
Open IE.
Do a file>work offline.
Close IE and reopen.
Open Windows Mail.
It should not do a send & receive because your offline.
Delete the message.

Or unplug the internet connection and then open Mail.
