Hi,
you could try increasing server timeouts,
in Outlook
> Tools
> Accounts
> select account
> Properties
> Advanced
> Increase timeout,
you can always set it back when mail sent.0 -

Check if it is in your "out box" or "draft folder" box, if it is you can delete it from there.Don`t steal - the Government doesn`t like the competition0

If it is in your out box, then you should be able to delete it from there, if you still need to send it, you could,(before deletion), copy and send it reduced or in 2 e-mails instead of 1 e-mail.Don`t steal - the Government doesn`t like the competition0 -
