Try Microsoft's fix:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/941090
Although it only mentions stuck emails in the Outbox,
apparently it works regardless of which folder the stuck emails are in.

Hi Cissyl,

Would you please post back if the KB941090 worked for the "Deleted Items" folder or not?

Thank You,
Shawn

If you open WindowsMail, Go to Delted Items, pay attention to how many
undeletable messages you have, close WindowsMail. Repeat, Each time you
open, view and close, 1 of the emails will dissapear. It's tedious, but it
works. At least now I don't have to view those messages (that don't exist)
and now they really don't.
