oversize attachment won't clear from mail when deleted

[c308682]

I tried to delete a draft message having an attachment that is oversize for the gmail servers. The problem is, the gmail mail app is still trying to sync the oversize file/message to the (gmail) trash as i is deleted from the trash.

So none of the new mail is coming in until the gmail app on the phone can resolve it.

Tried shutting down mail and restarting; tried phone restart.

The problem doesn't occur on a desktop computer using gmail because gmail rejects the message with the oversize file when trying to send.

How do I 'clear' the deleted file so that the phone can complete the 'loading conversations...' process that is hung up on the inbox, trash and allmail?

Try going to airplane mode then deleting the message.
