Cannot get rid of mail message which failed to send

I am "stuck" with a MAIL message which failed to send and has returned: "cannot send message using the server smtp.gmail.com:...... ".
I cannot delete it since the "delete" radio button on the message in inactive, it's not in the outbox or in "drafts".
It's sitting there and even if MAIL is closed and relaunched or if the system is restarted it appears again.

There are five messages in my Outbox.mbox>Messages folder (suffix .emix) all dated today. Only one of them is from my .mac account, the rest from Verizon email accounts. When I sent the .mac email, it seemed to be sent, but a copy did not end up in my sent folder as it usually does, yet the others all did. I’ve closed and reopened Apple Mail as well as restarted my system (iMac) and they are still there. Why are those 5 emails in the Outbox.mbox>Messages folder? Nothing shows up in the “Outbox” in my Mail sidebar. And if they have not been sent, how do I send them?
