Messages "Stuck" in Outbox...?

Howdy,

I am running Outlook 2000 SR1 under Win2K.

I have four messages "stuck" in the Outlook outbox. They are "stuck"
in two senses. First, if I try to send, they are not sent, and they
are not removed nor moved to the "Sent" folder. Also, if I open one of
these messages, the toolbar that appears is the same as it would be
for a message in the Inbox. So, rather than showing me a "Send"
button, Outlook provides a "Reply" button.

If I try to right click to delete any of these, I get a message that
the PST file (which is on a remote system) "Could not be accessed."

I can access the PST to read messages however, and I can access the
PST in Explorer with no trouble.

Can you suggest something to get this back on track?

Thanks for any help,

Hello again,

The problem is solved...

It turned out that my "Sent Items" folder was too full. I archived it,
and now, all is happy again.
