Vista - Re: Another Email stuck in Windows Mail Outbox

10-15-2008

If turning off the email scanning function does not resolve your problem,
consider upgrading to Windows Live Mail, because it is less prone to
suffering bad effects from overly aggressive antivirus programs.

Note: Any uninstall of Norton security software must be followed up by
using their special debris removal tool:

In addition to what Gary suggested, you can try my Windows Mail utility to
remove the stuck message. See www.oehelp.com/WMUtil/

You really need to install Vista SP1, but you first need to completely
remove Norton.
