It's already the second time, I have an E-Mail in the outbox of the Mail-app of Windows 8 which is stuck. I don't see the exact reason why this happens (I have no big files attached to the mails and the recipient is valid). The first time I have had this problem, I have not found a simple way to remove the stucked email. I solved the Problem by removing the accounts from the mail app and then adding the same accounts newly to the app.
Sep 27, 2013 - There are several reasons why an email might get stuck in an outbox. I'll look at some of the more common ones.
However I'm wondering if there is a more simple way of doing this? Does someone know how to remove an email which is stuck in the outbox? There is a 'simpler' way. The fix:. Disable your network interface(s) ( Windows+ W, type 'view network connections' and press Enter, right-click and Disable your network connection). Open the Mail app and go to the Outbox.
There is now a delete icon in the top right for each stuck mail item!. Don't forget to enable your connection(s) again Also another option is:. Go to your desktop. Right-click on your wireless in the System Tray.
Go to Open Network and Sharing Center. Go to View Network Connections (on the left). Disable from there and then follow step 2 above.
Go to tools, send and receive, send and receive settings, show progress - does that dialog give you any clues? BTW - did this problem just start and if so, have you tried rebooting?
