>>>>have blocked the outbox with 167mb email
haha must be a world record 
you will have to contact your host in the morning and they will delete them in a matter of seconds
if its any consolation about 8 years ago I got spammed and 127,000 email was hitting my PC, every second 2 - 3 was filling my in box and I could not delete them fast enough, had to go off line and get them removed the following day from the email server, don't worry you wont be the first and you wont be the last :p

does your email have a web based part where you can go and manually delete stuff
I have to go to talk talks site sometimes to manually delete my lineone email if its overloaded
I have taken to doing what my dad used to do with the telly when the picture was fuzzy
giving the pc a sharp smack on the case
not good i know,but it makes me feel better

Upgrade yourself from Outlook Depress to the full Outlook...or stick with the Thunderbird. Outlook Depress is too limited, especially if you are regularly working with photies as attachments.
