Outlook Express stores the contents of each folder (e.g, Inbox, Outbox) in a separate file. To work around this problem, you need to delete the file that is associated with the Outlook Express outbox. Perform the following steps:
Close Outlook Express.
Using 'Run' or through Windows Explorer (My Computer) go to your profile area (e.g. C:\Documents and Settings\your name\).
Within your profile, go to the folder Local Settings\Application Data\Identities\{[very long number]}\Microsoft\Outlook Express.
Find file Outbox.dbx and delete it.
Start Outlook Express (msimn.exe).
The system will create a new Outbox.dbx, and the Outbox will be empty.
