I can't delete some messages

After trying to send an email with attachments to photo, I received a message that the file was too big and e-mail could not be delivered.  I can't delete this notification message.

Welcome & thank you for your comments.

If you have additional problems:

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

1B. move 99% of your messages in your Inbox folder to other folders the of OE, too.

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 (cf. http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial62.html).

3. close OE.

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

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

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:

  • Why, all of a sudden, can't delete some messages in the Inbox of outlook express

    in the last week, I can't delete some messages from my outlook inboxof express. There is no constant to reason

    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:

  • iOS 10 Mail crashes after deleting some messages

    On my iPad after installing iOS 10 Mail closed unexpectly after deleting some messages. In addition, I regret the disappearance of the "remove all" button on some of the issues.

    Try resetting your device. This will not erase your data stored on that device.

    • Press and hold the sleep/wake button
    • Press and hold the Home button
    • Press and hold both buttons until the display turns off and on again with the Apple logo on the subject.

    Alternatively, you can go to settings - general - reset - Reset all settings

    If that doesn't work, restore your device to factory settings. Please note that this will delete the data on your device.

  • I can't delete some files that I uploaded to the server. What should I do?

    I can't delete some files that I uploaded to the server. I get a notice: FTP an error occurred - cannot delete the PDF download server folder. Operation failed. The directory is not empty, or there may be a permission problem.

    What should I do?

    Try to delete the files in your folder first.

    If there is a permissions problem on the server that you cannot delete files, you need to contact your Site Administrator (if you have one) or your Web hosting provider.

Please help

    Hi Debbie West,.

    This is usually caused by a corrupt message store. To rebuild the mail store (WindowsMail.MSMessageStore), follow these steps:

    1 save the email that you want to keep. While the reconstruction of the mail store should not result in any loss of e-mail, it is always best to be safe.

    2. close Windows Mail.

    3. click on the Start button, then on computer.

    4. navigate to C:\Users\your user/AppData/Local/Microsoft/Windows Mail name.

    5 delete the WindowsMail.MSMessageStore

    6. open the backup directory.

    7. open the new directory.

    8 remove WindowsMail.MSMessageStore.

    9. open Windows Mail to rebuild the mail store database.

    You should now be able to view and delete problematic messages.

    Note - in order to follow the directions above, you must enable 'Show hidden files' in folder view options

  • I can't delete a folder. In addition, in some cases, I can't delete some files.

    Using Windows Explorer (Windows XP) I can't delete a folder. (The data are not a program).

    File attributes are set to "hidden files" and the folder is empty (0-byte and no files are in the folder).

    In addition, the folder properties (and file) / attributes are 'read only '. When I uncheck "read only" and click OK, then look again at this, the box comes back to "read only with a check mark. (???)

    When I try to delete the folder, the message says "no empty folder", and it won't delete.

    Also, when I try to delete some files (in other cases) some people will not remove.

    Help, please.

    The 'read only' box on issues is not what he says. ignore it.

    A folder will not delete if it contains a locked file.  You will need to unlock and remove the file first.

    "Some files" will not delete because they are locked - that is to say, they are in use by an application.  There is a utility called "unlocker" used to be recommended to correct this situation, but the download now includes adware that may be reported by your antivirus/antimalware dangerous application.

    An 'empty' file that will not delete can be fixed if you run chkdisk.  Click Start > run and type the following command, and then click OK

    chkdisk/f

    A window will open to inform you that chkdisk /f cannot be run while Windows is active and proposed to schedule a chkdisk for the next reboot.  Answer Yes and restart.  When chkdisk is complete, delete the folder.

    The files that appear to be in use can be deleted by one or more of the following techniques:

    A. deleting a command prompt window.  You need to know the name of full of the file path.  For example, if you try to delete a file named test.txt that is located in a folder named Non empty folder on your desktop and your user name is NR16020, the full path name is C:\Documents and Settings\NR16020\Desktop\Non empty Folder\\test.txt

    • Open a command prompt window (start > run > cmd > OK)
    • Use the del for the files command and the command rd for folders.  If the full path name includes spaces, include it with double spaces.  Using the example:
      del "C:\Documents and Settings\NR16020\Desktop\Non Folder\\test.txt empty"
      'C:\Documents and Settings\NR16020\Desktop\Non Folder Empty' RD

    B. remove in safe mode.  To access Safe Mode, restart the computer and repeatedly press F8 immediately after that the power on sequence is complete.  If you see the Windows logo, you waited too long and need to try again.

    C. remove from a command prompt with closed Windows Explorer.  If the procedure fails because the file is locked, follow these steps:

    • Close all running applications
    • Open the Task Manager
    • Open a command prompt window
    • In the Task Manager process tab, right-click on explorer.exe, and then select end process
    • Open the command prompt window and follow the steps listed in point A above
    • In the Task Manager, click file > new task (run...), type explorer.exe, and then click OK

    Don't know what is an email RX?  You can open that message and scroll to the top then provide information listed in there, for example by using: XXX, folder: XXX, status: XXX.

    Did you try to reset your handset, such as remove and reinsert the battery without turning it off.

    If it's one of the corrupted message, you can summer use Desktop Manager to remove the database of the entire message.

  • Can I delete the message that is added to each new email

    When I compose a new email again, a message appears at the end who says:

    "Sent from my Smartphone from Sony Xperia on the Telstra Mobile network"

    I may delete this message manually each time, but is there a way I can remove it permanently?

    I just returned from an iphone that had a similar message (sent from my iPhone) but I was able to remove it permanently in the settings, but I don't see where I can do on my new Xperia Z3 compact.

    Suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
