    Outbox do not send messages

    I cant send email because my Outbox has a message that "message could not be
    sent. An error has occurred". What can I do to purge this email in order to
    send messags?

    If you can't delete that stuck message in the outbox,
    you should try Steve's new edition of WMUtil:
    http://www.oehelp.com/WMUtil/
    When you download the file, be sure to choose Save rather than Run.
    After it finishes downloading choose Run, then Extract. Then it will
    show the extracted folder with two files in it. Run WMUtil.exe, and
    click Clear Outbox. It may take a while.

    DOES anyone know if Steve's edition of WMUtil really works. I have a brand
    new laptop with Vista from Hell AND have an outgoing email that I CANNOT
    delete..
    Please tell me this works as I cannot get hold of Microsoft til Monday and
    that is 3 days without getting or sending emails...

    Help!!!

    Doesn't work anyway.

    The current version works. There was a bug in an earlier version that
    caused it not to work for some people.
