I can't delete emails from my Inbox

• After adding a new account, I can't delete emails from the Inbox for this account.

  I just added a sixth account to my installation of Thunderbird. There was no problem in adding the account and I can send and receive emails without problem. However, I can't delete emails from the Inbox. What should I do to correct this?

  OK, then compact Inbox:

  Right click on Inbox - Compact

  It is recommended that you enable automatic compaction. More information on the compaction in this article.

  I don't expect more problems with deleting messages after compaction.

  If you still have problems, follow these instructions.

• I can't delete emails from outlook express

  I can't delete emails from outlook express.  I press the button Delete and nothing happens.  Any suggestions?

  Deleted items is probably damaged. On the off chance that you want messages to be saved in deleted items, (a garbage can), move them to a local folder, you create and then follow these steps.
   
  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.

  With OE closed, find the DBX file for deleted items and delete it.  Another will be created automatically when you open OE.
   
   
   
  General precautions for Outlook Express:
   
  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.

• Windows Mail - Can't delete emails from any box (Inbox, deleted items, items, etc...).

  In October, my Windows Mail simply stop allowing me to remove anything.  I noticed it first in my Inbox, so I went to my "deleted items" empty to make (thinking that it was question) instead, but found that I could not delete individual emails or use the tool to empty folder.  Windows Mail doesn't allow me to delete ALL emails from ANY folder, so now I need to access my emails on the internet, but it's a pain that my address book is in position.

  I googled solutions and tried a few corrections people recommended when they are unable to remove files from a single folder.  They don't solve anything.  I thought corrupted program so I would update and downloaded Windows Live Mail hoping to fix it, but same problem remains.

  Error message when you try to delete individual reading by e-mail: "Message could not be deleted."  Error message when you exit the program: "certain elements in the"Deleted items"folder cannot be deleted.  An error has occurred. "Nothing specific, but ANY element of ANY folder can be deleted.

  Hello
  I have disabled virus protection and were able to get into my box removed and delte the bad email.

  Thanks for the help

• Emails are not sent and cannot delete emails from the Inbox

  I recently bought an iMac, retina of 27-inch end 2015 model 5 k pro. 3.2 GHz Intel Core i5 8 gb 1867 MHz DDR3
  I use OS x El Capitan v 10.11.4 and Mail v9.3

  E-mail was setup and fine for a month or so of work. Yesterday, it started to get really slow and slower.
  It allows me to delete messages in my Inbox and it wont let me move messages to other folders.
  It also will not let send me e-mail messages.  It won't even put it in my drafts folder, they disappear.
  Then in the column on the left down at the bottom it says "send message" and is stuck on about 1/4 of the way and never ended up sending.

  I have read in this forum and tried a few things to fix it without success.
  And I even went in connection doctor and it says that everything is connected and works fine.

  Very frustrated because I need emails for my business and it has not worked for two days.

  Anyone has any suggestions for me on what to try next?

  See if reconstruction of the support mailbox.

• 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 '.

• cannot delete emails from the Inbox

  Using Outlook Express.  Some emails go in box shipping and stuck there.  Messages are sent repeatedly but not appear in the sent mail or leave the Outbox.

  You have posted on the forum for Windows XP Performance and Maintenance, and you probably should have posted in the Forum Win XP Internet Explorer since OE is part of Internet Explorer.  If your message is not answered, a moderator of the Forum will eventually move your question, but you can also move it yourself if you want to.

  At the end of your first post (original post) is a button change. Click on the button and change the Forum the Forum there is Internet Explorer.  Click on all subjects, and in the menu drop-down menus, select your product information and the subject. This will put you in the forum that fits your problem.

• How to permanently delete emails from my computer?

  When we remove the trash on Thunderbird emails, are they removed and replaced (such as Secure Empty Trash on a Mac), or are they still recoverable from somewhere on the computer? If the latter, how can you completely delete and overwrite the deleted emails from the Thunderbird trash folder?

  Thank you

  Beachwalk43

  Simple: compact your trash folders after deleting.

  You might close Thunderbird, ferret on his profile and remove garbage files, and of course you are free to use all of the 3rd party utilities for scrubbing erased files.

  I read users who run Firefox in the batch that deletes all the files that can store data in the session after Firefox has been closed. You may be able to adapt and adopt this approach too.

  Any window that you want to resize all the time must be the last closed window.
   
  Take the corners of the window and drag it to the format full screen. Do not use to expand. Close all other windows first via the taskbar and the latter. Windows will remember the size of the last closed window the next time that you open the program.
   

• Help! -I can't delete messages in my Inbox in Outlook Express 6

  Hello.
  I can't delete messages in my Inbox in Outlook Express 6. An idea

  1. move all the messages that you want to keep out of the folders Inbox, sent items and deleted items and in other local OE folders have created you for archiving (backup) of such messages.

  2. Note the location of the store of your identity (http://www.insideoe.com/files/store.htm#storemain).

  2B. turn on "Show hidden folders and files" via start | Control Panel | Folder options | View (see http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial62.html).

  3. close OE.

  4. in Windows Explorer, navigate to your storage folder, find & delete the files Inbox.dbx, Outbox.dbx, Sent Items.dbxand Deleted Items.dbx.

  5 empty the trash.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  To avoid such problems in the future, comply with the following restrictions:

  N ' not use Inbox or sent items to archive messages.  Move them to local folders created for this purpose.

  -Empty the deleted items folder daily.

  -Frequently perform a manual compact of all OE while records that "work offline".  More on http://www.insideoe.com/files/maintain.htm

  -Do not cancel automatic compacting, where it would happen and do not try to close OE via Manager tasks or stop your Automatic compaction machine can take place.

  -Disable e-mail scanning in your antivirus application.  It can cause corruption (i.e., loss of messages) and offers no additional protection:
