Deleted Messages can't be deleted from "Deleted Items"
When I try to empty the Deleted Items folder I get an "unknown error has
occurred" message. In short, I can't delete items in the Deleted Items folder. When I right-click and chose "empty folder" it deleted one item in the folder but not all. Junk folder works fine. If I select items in the Deleted Items folder and click delete the same error message pops up. Any idea how to fix this?

Deleted Messages can't be deleted from "Deleted Items"
I've tried to delete manually the contents of the folder via the Explorer.
When I restart Windows Mail, "Deleted Items" are always here. It's amazing !!

FIXED Deleted Messages can't be deleted from "Deleted Items"
The problem is when you delete the top message in the box.
The work around is to delete everything else first, then delete the top message. Easy! "Gerald Guyot" wrote: I've tried to delete manually the contents of the folder via the Explorer. When I restart Windows Mail, "Deleted Items" are always here. It's amazing !!

FIXED Deleted Messages can't be deleted from "Deleted Items"
Deleting "everything else first" doesn't work either, it does nothing and
elicits the same error. The problem is NOT solved and it is not "easy" because it does NOT solve the problem. The deleted items folder simply will not empty and I cannot delete message one by one either. "Toysrme" wrote: The problem is when you delete the top message in the box.

FIXED Deleted Messages can't be deleted from "Deleted Items"
Nothing that was suggested does work. The message bodies appear to have been
deleted in the reading pane but the actual message list is still filled. There is a consistent error message in the reading pane saying "Message could not be displayed. Windows Mail encountered an unexpected problem while displaying this message. Check your computer for low memory or low disk space and try again". Now neither memory nor disk space is low. Messages that properly display the content of emails can be deleted, nothing work for the debris that's left in the "Deleted Items" box. Annoying. "Frank Saunders, MS-MVP OE/WM" wrote in message ...

You posted to a thread where the problem was the Inbox. Where is your problem? Deleted Items is probably corrupt. Go to Tools | Options | Maintenance | Store Folder and see where OE is storing its data files. Close OE. Go to the store folder with Windows Explorer and delete Deleted Items.dbx. With Win2K, WinXP and Win2K3 it will be a hidden file. OE will build a new one when you reopen it. If Deleted Items has messages you want to keep, instead of deleting it move (not copy) it to an empty Windows folder. Then use DBXtract on the old Deleted Items.dbx. DBXtract ($5): http://www.oehelp.com/DBXtract/ You can drag the recovered messages from the Windows folder back into an OE folder in the Folder List in an open OE.
