A clue!  Yahoo have tightened up on being able to use Outlook for reading
Yahoo mail.   I would visit the Yahoo mail help pages and see if you can
find any hints there.  BTW my settings are for Yahoo.co.uk and I use
pop.mail.yahoo.co.uk for incoming and my local server for sending.

Thanks again Linda.  So far, I have tried all and so far, I have only been
able to send the email.  I chose the option to only send my yahoo email, and
that got it out of the Outbox.  I have since deleted it from Yahoo! itself,
but I guess now the problem is receiving mail.  It is only coming from
trying to download my Yahoo mail, because the other mail that is set up
under Outlook is working fine (unless that is because there was no mail to
download from the other account).  I haven't had any trouble accessing my
Yahoo mail from the web, so I don't know what the problem could be.  
Linda, I was able to locate the scanpst.exe file, but when doing a search
for .pst files, my computer didn't find anything, so I couldn't locate
anything to repair.  I have also cleaned out all the emails in my inbox, and
even when there is nothing there, I am still having a problem.  . Now I just
don't know what to do.

Sorry, I meant to say turn that feature off in Tools>Options, then close
Outlook, then RE-OPEN Outlook and try deleting the message in the Outbox.
Since you turned off the feature, Outlook shouldn't be trying to send it
again when you open it back up.

Hope that's clearer.

It's definitely possible that stuck message is causing the problem.  But,
you definitely shouldn't have to uninstall and reinstall Outlook to do that.

Go into Outlook's Tools>Options and turn off the feature that says to Send
mail automatically when connected.  Then close Outlook ... Then try deleting
it again.

As far as attachments go, no you can't send them to the group.  But you can
read the info in the footers of these messages and join the Files group and
upload the attachments there.  Or, you can just open the attachments, Select
All, then copy/paste them into an email and send it to the group.

To find your pst file, go to your Start button and use Windows search
feature to find *.pst
