It is likely stuck because it has a bad address, or has an attachment that is too large. If you want to save the text of the email, open it by double-clicking, select the text, and copy and paste into a new blank email. Then select the email in the Outbox and delete it.


Before sending the email again, check to make sure that you are sending to a valid address, and the size of a document you might be attaching.
