My PERSONAL experience with this issue was that I was Vista (pre-SP1) Mail
was stuck in Outbox. Mail could not be deleted.
Attempt to display message resulted in same thing you were seeing.

I applied KB941090, and then rebooted Vista, and that problem went away...
Deletion was now possible...
But I still had other Windows Mail problems. I am now looking at Windows
Live Mail

YMMV

Re: can't send email but can receive them

If any messages can't be deleted, apply this Microsoft fix:

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/941090

Although that article only mentions Outbox, it works for all mail folders.
