98 pictures and a video? How many megabites is that? What mail program are you using?
So here's the deal...... Oh before I start, let me say HI to everyone! ....
Okay, so last weekend was my best friend's birthday and I was in charge of the photography. The next day I downloaded all of the pictures into a folder. Once they were downloaded I highlighted the ones I wanted to send (like 98 of them) and a short video, and right clicked. Then I clicked send to email, typed in my friend's email address and voila......... or so I thought.
Now the email is stuck in the outbox and my PC is slow as crap. The email is even slower. It won't let me open the message in the outbox, it won't let me delete it.....nothing.......
What do I do? Can it be fixed????? Sequ's really mad at me
And it took me like 40 minutes just to get this message to you guys.....
HELPPPPPPPP!
Thanks in advance....

She'll get back to you, tommorrow.
You're probably choking your mail program. I would see if you can kill it with Control-Atl-Delete.
Then load your pictures up on a web page with a program like picasa and just send the URL to your friends.
And while you're waiting, you can make a big apologetic cherry pie.
On the other hand, we should be thanking you for finding a way to limit the usual stream of crap from Sequ.
She'll get back to you, tommorrow.
Oh that was harsh!
Sorry to hear about your computer trouble, Pseudo. Hope it is fixed soon.
Task Manager is not working......
I already sent them the pics. They gave me their shutterfly account information and I just downloaded them there for them........
Now, I'm the one that's screwed.... I knew I shouldn't do nice things for other people~ I hate being nice......
If the email is stuck in the outbox, you haven't sent them.
Reboot.
Nope, reboot is not working either. It's still there. It's like 525megabytes or some rediculous crap.
When I open outlook to check it, it says outlook has begun transmitting the message in the outbox. It's like satan......
It's not going away! WTF???? I just want to get rid of the freakin email already!!!
I wonder if you can reboot...open in safe-mode, and then close out your email program, and delete the current task.
Do a system restore to a date prior to your email.
Damn- thats a lot of pix to send at once.
Just go buy a new comptuer!!!! Problem solved!
Hi, Pseudo!
You rebooted your computer and Outlook is still trying to send it? I would do what P<S suggested.
If that ever gets sent, you're probably going to choke your friends' mailboxes, too.
I'm amazed Outlooks doesn't have a flag or something to warn you about this before you send.
Don't know if this will work...it almost sounds too simple
What if you disconnect your puter from the internet (router modem) .... will outlook eventually give up trying to find a connection...and just terminate the task by itself?
You know, that should.
Outlook should give up trying to make a connection. You'll get an error message stating that Outlook couldn't connect to the internet and then you can go to the outbox and delete the message.
A file that big may be better off sent here so your friend can retrieve it faster.

It's not a single file, it's 99 separate ones.
You could zip them together in a single file and put them on a file sharing site, but for sharing photos I would just use www.picasa.com
Listen, I don't mean to sound like an ingrate.....
BUT STOP GIVING ME TIPS ON HOW TO SEND THE GOTDAMN PICTURES!!!
I will ask Sequ to try some of your suggestions. Thanks! If you all can think of anything else, please let me know. I really don't want to make daily apologetic pies....
Thanks again everyone!!
Since you asked, here are some more sites where you can upload pictures:
imagshack.us
imagehosting.com
photobucket.com
tinypic.com
picturetrail.com
imagevenue.com
And I'll take mine in blueberry.

it has a tool icon that will allow you to keep any program from working after boot up.
Actually, I think sending a ginormous computer-choking e-mail like that may violate federal internet laws. Let me check with the FBI and get back to you.
