Close Windows Mail.
Navigate to %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Microsoft and move the Windows Mail folder
to your Documents folder.
Open Windows Mail and import your messages from Local Folders in the moved
store.

I've just updated my WMUtil program to include a "Clear Outbox" button that
might fix the problem for you.

See www.oehelp.com/WMUtil/

Please post back if it works.

Steve, I went to the websit but not sure what to click on, guess I'm too
scared to click anything. Do I start with compact database or what?

Download the zip file where it says Download here (the link is
http://www.oehelp.com/WMUtil/WMUtil.zip). Then extract both files to a
blank directory or just the Desktop. Then if you have a stuck message in
the Outbox, then click on the Clear Outbox and see what happens. It will
take some time, so just wait.

If the buttons are not clickable, then that means WinMail is running. Close
it and wait a few seconds. If they still aren't clickable, then do a
CTRL-SHIFT-ESC and look at the running processes and find WinMail.exe and
click on it and then click on the End process button. Then the buttons
should become clickable.

I hit the "clear outbox" key on your utility. How long should that process
take? It's been over 15 min. Could it be stuck?

when I hit "clear outbox" I get the following: Unable to load DLL
"scxout.dll". The application has failed to start because its side-by-side
configuration is incorrect (Exception from HRESULT:0x800736B1)
Any suggestions?

The zip file has two files in it. Extract both of them to the desktop or at
least to the same directory. Then click on the exe to run the program. It
will take some time if you have lots of messages, but it should give a
messagebox when its finished.
