Mail is not sent any more as there is one corrupt mail in the out tray. I
cant delete it from there. When i hit delete, it says "unknown Error". I cant
view it either. Is there a way to fix or reorganize the database ?

Had you performed a rudimentary search on the archive you
would have found...

http://www.oehelp.com/WMUtil/Default.aspx

Note. Don't play fast and loose with the instructions particularly...

"If Windows Mail is open or if a current WinMail.exe process is running, the
Database functions are disabled, and they (the WinMail processes) must be
terminated before these features are available. (If WinMail is closed and
these buttons still remain disabled, then perform and CTRL-SHIFT-ESC and
under Processes find WinMail.exe and click on it, and then click the End
Process button.)"

That is not to say that you are risking damaging any data or functions
but that without acting in accordance with the instructions the program
will simply not make available the function you need.
 
OK I have also the same problem. WMUtil only help to solve when the problem
occurs (which is already very good) but this does no solve the basic problem.
At this moment to send mail I have to close the mail program and wait to
receive the message " you have unsent mail in the outbox" this is the only
way I have to send mail. Receiving is OK. But I always have to check what is
in the oubbox after that in order to delete already sended mail.
I am also looking forward to have a real solution to this.

If you have Norton or McAfee uninstall them. Make sure any other anti-virus
is not checking email or EML files. Uninstall any anti-spam program.
