How to remove messages from the Inbox in bulk?

How can I delete messages received in bulk?  I use Windows Mail/VISTA.

Yay!  I finally had to remove it with your help!  I chose the original email to remove then scroll down for the final message to remove, but before choosing it, I held down the control and shift together key at the same time, and then I clicked on the last email to delete, then selected the icon to delete (X) at the top and now the shift keys and command down.  It took several minutes to remove 2,000 emails, but I still 16 000 more to go.  I think I'll just delete them all at once... it takes maybe 15 minutes or more to clear them at the same time!  Thank you, thank you!... Now to get my Windows mail to stop appearing in the Security window to enter my username and password for (whenever I have enter them, Windows Mail sent me a few thousand emails duplicate!)  I already deleted and then recreated the accounts, so I hope it works!

  • Cannot remove messages from the Inbox

    I'm unable to remove items from the Inbox

    You did not mention what e-mail program you use. These instructions will help you with Outlook Express.

    Spend most of your messages out of the Inbox if you can and move the messages you want to record off deleted items, and sent items. Locate the OE message store and then close OE.

    Tools | Options | Maintenance | Store folder will reveal the location of your Outlook Express files. Note the location and navigate on it in Explorer Windows or, copy and paste in start | Run.

    In Windows XP, Win2K & Win2K3 the OE user files (DBX and WAB) are by default marked as hidden. To view these files in Windows Explorer, you must enable Show hidden files and folders under start | Control Panel | Folder Options icon | Opinion, or in Windows Explorer. Tools | Folder options | View.

    With OE closed, find the Deleted Items.dbx and Sent Items.dbx files and delete them. New files will be created automatically when you open OE.

    Compact all folders as described below.

    To avoid this in the future:

    Do not archive mail in the receipt or sent items box. Create your own user-defined folders and move messages you want to put in them. Empty the deleted items folder daily. Although the dbx files have a theoretical capacity of 2 GB, I recommend all a 300 MB max for less risk of corruption.

    Information on the maximum size of the .dbx files that are used by Outlook Express:
    http://support.Microsoft.com/?kbid=903095

    After you're done, followed by compacting your folders manually while working * off * and do it often.

    Click Outlook Express at the top of the the folder tree so no folders are open. Then: File | Work offline (or double-click on work online in the status bar). File | Folder | Compact all folders. Don't touch anything until the compacting is completed.

    Disable analysis in your e-mail anti-virus program. It is a redundant layer of protection that devours the processors and causes a multitude of problems such as time-outs and account setting changes. Your up-to-date A / V program will continue to protect you sufficiently. For more information, see:

  • How to transfer messages from the Inbox to another mailbox?

    I need all the messages in my Inbox that I do not delete to access a specific mailbox. An alternative is to send all incoming messages directly to this mailbox. I can't find a way in the preferences to do this. Is there a way?

    Reason: Inbox is not synchronized in iCloud. When you use the MBA and scatters messages manually I have to start over all when the iMac. And the messages still in the Inbox of the computer, that they have been downloaded are not in the other computer. At the present time I manually move all messages in a temporary Inbox that is synchronized via iCloud. Unfortunately I forget and find myself away without my recent messages from the Inbox or at home to run after the MBA to make the move. Are there solutions?

  • Thunderbird 45.4.0 - how to remove messages from the imap server

    Mail is left on the server unless I choose the option to delete messages immediately, I want to delete messages from the server when I connect to Thunderbird and they have been downloaded on my PC. When I delete messages on my PC, I want them to go to the trash until I empty folder.

    This worked on Windows Live Mail.  Would switching to POP server help?
    

    Messages, I've read about IMAP seem to say that they would be removed by default. Maybe I'm wrong...

    Message filters can move a message to any folder. See 'Tools' from the main menu.

  • After that installation of Windows 10 cannot remove messages from the Inbox and was told to change my browser.

    I can't delete the emails often. Sometimes if I score one or two to remove it will work. When I have several and click on remove nothing happens. Also, when I delete an element of it is open and then return to my Inbox it is not deleted. I asked the support of Yahoo and the suggestion that came was change my browser, I don't want to do. Can you help me? Thank you.

    I understand that the messages will not be deleted when you manage your webmail in Firefox. I'd be more than happy to help, however I might suggest trying first Safe Mode to ensure that it is not not a hardware acceleration or add on interfering with the operation of the site.

  • How to remove programs from the system tray without removing them from the startup?

    How to remove programs from the system tray without removing them from the startup on Windows XP folder?

    Hello

    The first step is to identify the program that represents the icon and decide whether it should be in the system tray (most are not necessary). Hold the cursor of the mouse on the icon to see the name of the program that launches the icon.

    The best bet is to click the icon to see if this opens the box of the program options. If so, look for a selection similar to "remove from the system tray.

    Alternatively, you can hide the icons in the system tray.

    Here's how:

    1. right click on the taskbar and select "Properties".

    2. in the "Notification area" click "Hide inactive icons" if she already unchecked and then click on the button "Customize".

    3. click on the ' column next to each of your current behavior and choose one of the three behaviors for each program icon that appears in the system tray: "Hide when it is idle," "Always hide", or "always show".»

    If you hide an icon, but then see it again the next time that you log on to Windows, you may need to uninstall the program to permanently remove the icon. Uninstall the program permanently removes the program from your computer. For more information, see Uninstall or change a program.

    OK, that's a lot of sense.  But I still don't know what I have to do them down the office without losing them.

    If you move from your Explorer or finder in a given folder, you will not lose them and they will disappear from your desktop.

    If you want to use the Organizer to keep track of your photos in the catalog, use the Organizer, not the Explorer / finder to move them to another folder on the desktop.

  • I got a partial answer to my question about "how to delete emails from the Inbox in Outlook Express. Can I track my original request with a follow-up of the issue?

    Thank you very much for your answer.
     
    Outlook Express is listed on the Start button.  Following your instructions,.
     
    I clicked on start, Control Panel, Folder Options/view.  Point of view, a list of Options have been posted and some have been checked, including 'display the hidden files and folders '.
     
    I do not know how to find Inbox.dbx.  I still find 41 messages in the Inbox, 78 in the deleted items and 14 in mass mailings.  When I click on "remove" messages, I get a message - "the server is not found. In addition, unable to poll for new messages on your HTTP server.
     
    "I uncheck" "include this account" so then, I probably is no longer get emails in Outlook Express.  My hard drive is pathetic looking.  I find a small "Ribbon of pink pie (unused space) and in the rest of the cake shape is 'BLUE'.  I thought that E-mails from Outlook Express can be responsible for my hard drive being so full. After I empty all these junk emails in 2008, I have to know what else I can remove to open more space on my hard drive.
     
    Thank you for your patience and for your help.

    After deleting messages in OE, go to file | Folder | Compact to reduce the size of the folder.  Otherwise removal does not affect the size of a folder.  You should probably go to file | Folder | Compact everything to reduce all sizes of folder in OE.  I would like to make a backup first.

    For more free space on your disk, click Start | Programs | Accessories | System Tools | Disk Cleanup.

    It is not best to start a new message when you are tracking on another, because nobody knows what you're referring to when you the previous thread.  I managed to find it well and Bruce said: ' tools | Options | Maintenance | Store folder will reveal the location of your Outlook Express files. Note the location and navigate on it in Explorer Windows or, copy and paste in start | Run '.

    What iCloudService do you use?

    • If the iPhone and the Mac are synchronized with iCloud photo library, removal of the photos from the iPhone will remove them from the Mac as well.  iCloud photo library is a synchronization service that will ensure that you see the same pictures on all devices. All change at will the timing and any deletion or any import.  To win the storage on the iPhone allow the iCloud Photos setting "Optimize Storage.
