    Hi Jazylady,

    Read the "First" section in this tutorial and install the KB941090 Update from Microsoft. It should fix you up.

    Try this Microsoft fix:

    http://support.microsoft.com/default...b/941090/en-us

    Note: It also works for other stuck messages in locations other than the Outbox.

    THANK YOU!! i have been hunting for days for something that would fix my
    inbox! The fix says that it's for messages stuck in your outbox, but i had
    several that wouldn't delete from the inbox and it has worked great. Thank
    you so much!!

    Try reading other people's answers to problems with deleting email
    (even in other folders). Someone gets an answer a few times a day.

    Re: unable to delete email in inbox

    The solution to this problem is posted here a few dozen times each day.
    Did you read the responses to posts similar to yours?
    Microsoft's fix is available here:

    http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/941090
    "Messages may be stuck in the Outbox when you use Windows Mail on a
    computer that is running Windows Vista"

    Although Outbox is the only folder mentioned, it will remove stuck
    messages from all folders.
