Why will not erase the deleted messages in Thunderbird in FACT?

This problem does not exist on my other computer or my phone when I delete imap messages, but when I delete this computer, even if it appears in the Trash of Thunderbird folder on this computer, it is not actually go in webmail or on any other device. Any ideas? Thank you.

Re: when I delete emails from Thunderbird on the computer in question, they appear in the trash on this computer, but they do not actually delete from the server, they remain in the original folder (Inbox, sent).

Quote:
It is ideal for a message erased on an IMAP account or visible in webmail or other e-mail clients. Deleting a message just sets a flag, and it's the interface chart user what to do when there is a message when this flag is set. However, once Thunderbird compact (expurgated) this folder, the deleted message shouldn't be visible more webmail or any mail client, because it has been deleted physically.

IMAP accounts offer several options to delete messages that are not available in the accounts pop tools-> account-> server settings settings-> "when I delete a message" a choice for "Move to trash", "Mark as deleted" and "withdraw immediately".
end of quote.

More information about the different methods are detailed on the link:

If you right-click on the eg: Inbox folder and select "compact", this should eliminate the traces of the deleted messages.

to compact a file: right-click on a folder and select "compact".

to compact all folders: file > Compact folders

you set up the auto strike?
Tools-> account settings-> server to select imap e-mail account settings: clean up ("Expunge") Inbox on exit that compress the Inbox folder when you exit Thunderbird. If you check 'Empty trash on exit' will also empty and compact the deleted items folder when you quit.

  • Why will not erase my browser history?

    This latest update has been awful for a very basic computer like me user. I have used Mozilla with happiness for years, but the amount of time I spent trying to get back to the way I like it starts to get me back at all. Chrome is looking awfully good right now.

    I already spent hours trying to get rid of the Yahoo thing that appeared suddenly like my search engine, and now my browser history will not clear. I used to be able to show the history and delete. Easy! Now even when history says that it is clear, even when I closed all tabs before closing mozilla (with the exception of my Google home page) when I reopen it Mozilla four tabs are back. It should, based on my my use prior, only open to my home page if I want to restart my previous tabs he asks me. Why is this happening?

    I'm a very basic computer user and this diversion suddenly my browser and search engine is a bit painful actully and frankly I'm sick of trying to fix it.

    Yay, love the internet. Found a way around it and what was the problem. I clicked on the wrong thing when settting to the top of my homepage apprently. Complaints about upgrade are still standing. Very frustrating.

    How can I delete two files on my desktop that will not delete?

    Hello

    It may be worth trying the following.

    Judgment of the laptop.  Tap away at f8 that you start the PC to enter the Windows Recovery Console.  Use the arrow keys to select Safe mode and press ENTER.  When windows has loaded in this mode, see if you can now delete the Desktop files successfully.  To exit Safe Mode, just restart the laptop.

    Another option is to use a utility that will add "Take Ownership" to the contextual right click menu.  The download is on the following link

    Take Ownershi

    It is a zipped file.  If you do not have an extraction utility installed, download and install7-Zi , which can be used to open it so that you can run the Setup program.  Then just right click the folder zipped, select 7 - Zip and extract the files.  When you're done, open the newly extracted folder and you can find the utility to add "Take Ownership" to the right click menu.  Double-click it to install it and then close the window.  You should now be able to right click on the files you need to access and select Take Ownership - after taking possession see if you can remove the file now.

    If the above does not help, download and install ccleaner on the link below.

    http://www.Piriform.com/ccleaner/download/standard

    Once installed, launch the program and run the cleaning utility file.

    Kind regards

  • Why will not display the nested div CSS properties?

    I am configuring a zone of activity featured on a home page.  It should show on the slide show images.  I made sure the values of z-index of the event box divs are much higher than the slide show.  The external div (.featuredEvent-wrapper) does NOT display the background color assigned to it, no matter what I try.  The internal div (.boxEvent star) does not - the color of police, police-family or text-shadow, and the only way I could get it to align the text to the Center was by assigning that to the wrapper).
