How do i stop an email sending?!?!?!

[awms]

Someone in my office has tried to send an email with a 200mb file attached. Is there any way to get in to exchange and cancel it?

I've been looking thru it and can't find how to stop it...

I've disconnected from the internet and reconnected, but it just tries again!


Pleees help!!

In Exchange Admin go to 'Connections' and double click the 'Internet Mail Service', go to the 'Queues' tab and the email should be in there - there is a delete button.

Whilst in the Internet Mail Service you could also go to the 'General' tab and set a Message Size limit. I've got ours set to 10240K.

"This is e-mail, not freight-mail"

Thanks!


I've set the limit too.


That should stop them being silly...

Ummmm there's no such setting!

There's not even a "connections" option.

I'm using Exchange 2000 on SBS 2000 server.

Ahh, I'm using Exchange5.5 on NT4, but I didn't think there was a massive difference.
In Exchange Admin the root is called your 'organization', one of the subsections is your 'Site', inside this is 'Configuration' and inside that is the 'Connections' I originally mentioned.
