Deleting email in "OUTBOX"
I want to delete an email that's sitting in the OUTBOX - I can't as hard as I try - I get the following message when I try to delete -
Cannot open this item. Outlook has already begun transmitting this message.
I have Outlook 2010 and Windows 7 - thanks.

I don't see a cancel in the send and receive tab - is that the tab on the upper righr of Outlook or the upper left of Outlook?
Try my method :) It works 100% of the time for me.
