I am getting the same message and when I go to my outbox that has 4 unsent
messages one of them will not delete due to an error problem message.
The others will delete. Nothing can be sent out at this point. Any thoughts?
lisaw...@comcast.net
Go to Tools | Accounts | Add | Mail and add your same mail account over
again. Then remove the first mail account and close and reopen WinMail and
see if you can delete that message then. Some others reported that would
get rid of the message.
If that doesn't work then post back.

You're dealing with volunteers here.
Manners, please and thanks etc.,
will improve your chance of help.
Before you go to the trouble of deleting and regenerating the
email database, try this: Create a new email account with the same
settings as the existing account. Then delete the existing account.
Restart Windows Mail. If it still doesn't work, one of us will give you
the procedure for database deletion/regeneration.

You might also try the compact and repair buttons in WMUtil.

It gets an MVP with developing capacities and a great amount of generosity,
and luckily we have all that with Steve Cochran. Read about and download
its WMUtil program here: http://oehelp.com/wmutil

I and several other people have had the same problem. Go to
and download Steve's utility (follow Steve's directions to save to your
desktop). Then use the utility (after unzipping) to compact your e-mail and
the problem will go away. Then, in the future, compact your e-mail every
time the dialog box appears asking if you want to compact your e-mail.
Good luck.

When you say Wmutil didn't work, what did happen when you
clicked clear outbox button?
Are you sure you stopped the Winmail process via Taskmgr?
Could you also clarify...
"Yesterday I turned on my laptop an it sent messages today it is stuck
again."
Do you mean the message is in the out box?

Not if you follow the instructions.
"Unable to load DLL 'scxout.dll" indicates that you are executing
Wmutil from a different location than where it's companion file
scxout.dll resides... in other words you have ignored the very
first instruction following "download here."
It says...
"Note: The zip file contains two files which must be saved
to the same directory (one can use the Desktop.)"
So... once again...
There are two files in the zip file.
You have to extract both of them to the same location.
(You didn't extract the dll, but just the exe file.)
Then run the program and see if it works.

I expect so, meanwhile I'll mark this for the attention of Steve Cochran,
since I've never seen your error before.

Are you using a 64 bit processor?

Do you have a 64bit processor?

I thought so.
When I googled SystemBadImageFormatException
all the pages found seemed to involve 64bit processors.
I have informed the author of Wmutil and will repost when or if there is a
solution.
Meanwhile you should consider...
http://get.live.com/en-us/betas/maildesktop_betas
I use it and prefer it to WM.
ps.
There will ALWAYS be issues so long as software
is written and used by humans.
There are no messages in the outbox so nothing is stuck

Thanks Bob
Some of the responses I found on Google suggest that one fix
is to use Comcast's 'travel' settings:

Other people have had it with Eudora and on Macs and in addition
to what Gary said, ie. a Comcast thing, another suggestion was a problem
something in a signature... have you got a weird signature attached?
Anyway... here's one suggestion about the Comcast travel problem...
To reconfigure Windows Mail for use when not on the Comcast
network:
Tools > Accounts > your email > Properties > General >
ensure that the email address and Reply address
are set to your @Comcast.net email address
On the Servers tab, click My Server Requires Authentication and then
click Settings. Please note: Do NOT check the "Log On Using Secure
Password Authentication" box. In the Outgoing Mail Server window, select
Log On Using, enter your @Comcast.net email address and password and
click OK
On the Advanced tab, click This Server Requires A Secure Connection
(SSL) for both the incoming and outgoing servers
Make sure the port is 465 in the Outgoing mail port number field and
995 in the Incoming mail port number field
Click Apply
Click OK
