How can I delete past 30 days Email from server without downloading messages?

[Derik]

Dear All:

I need to be able to just delete the past 30 days Emails from the E-mail
server without downloading. How can I do this?

Microsoft 2003 Outlook failed to delete all my messages from the server when
I downloaded them, even though the proper checkbox was checked. The E-mail
has been left on the server for more than 30 days now. I am stuck with old
Email and cannot retreive my new Email unless I go through the entire
download process again, create duplicate Emails in my client etc. etc.

I need to be able to just delete the past 30 days Emails from the E-mail
server without downloading. How can I do this?

Thanks MS for wasting my time again. The 60 day free trail from my brand new
Toshiba laptop is not going well. Yahoo E-mail and others on the web
services platforms are looking like the only truly reliable E-mail solutions
for my desktop. Really unhappy with your products. Why should I pay for
more an update? The products I have from you already now are not working that
well either. Too many bells and whistles that do not work properly . They
all badly done and simply add to the complications of using the softwate and
increase they increase the failure rate of important issues....like Email
that works. My opinion. Unhappy customer.

Many ISPs have an online user interface to access email, if your's doesn't
just contact your ISP and have them dump your email. I've had to do this a
few times due to getting hit with email bomb...over 700 bogus emails kept
trying to download...pita.

Dear Rob:

Thank you for the idea. My ISP claims that it cannot get rid of the extra
Emails on the mail server. I already asked tht question. Pretty bad
performance on its part. Why, I do not know...lol. I am lnow eft with trying
to get this thing done myself somehow.

I have even tried deleted my POP3 account entirely and recreating it again.
Problem is that all the Email on the server reappears. Now I have new Email
on the server, I cannot do that trick again. Besides, it did not work the
first time when I had just discovered the problem.

What I need is a way to access the server and ask it to delete all Emails
older than a certain date. I am sure that there is some good software out
there somewhere than can fix this collosal mistake by Microsoft Outlook 2003,
but so far I have not found it . I am still looking for a solution. Thank
you again for your help.
