I'm using Outlook Express 6 and I having an e-mail that's in the sending process... but won't send. How can I stop it or delete it from sending. It's been this way for almost a week. I've sent other mail and I'm still receiving mail.But for some reason this particular e-mail won't go.

Sometimes, an email address may prevent the email from actually sending. There may be an error in the address. However, you say that you would just like to stop it so you could switch to "Outbox" view and delete the email.

However, ultimately you would want to know what caused the problem. Do you eventually get an error message from Outlook Express?

Yes, the error message was:

A TCP/IP error occurred while trying to send data to the server. Subject ', Account: 'pop.att.yahoo.com', Server: 'smtp.att.yahoo.com', Protocol: SMTP, Port: 465, Secure(SSL): Yes, Error Number: 0x800CCC13

Can anyone help?

What is the size of the email? Is it over the amount allowed
by Yahoo?

Are you sending the stuck email to one person or several?
Is the email address incorrect, as Tigger suggested?

Go offline with OE. Then click to highlight that email, then
click to delete. Then go back online.

If you are on dial-up, just don't connect until you are done.
If you have high speed, click File on the OE Menu-> work
offline.
