Stuck in Mailer daemon loop on bad email address

How do you delete a sent email that had a bad/dead end address that it will never reach? It has been days that I am stuck with getting the mailer daemon response email from Comcast. I just want to delete this email that was sent on my Comcast account via my phone. Thank you

Mail servers are typically configured to retry delivery every few hours for a period of several days and send back a status message after each failed attempt. There's no way to stop this process. Then they will give up, usually sending you a final "delivery abandoned" message.
