OutLook Express/deleting

[Guest]

I can't delete contents in Deleted Items folders, I select all then delete,
but nothing happens. I have the Vista Windows...did they change it to just
deleting one email at a time?

hi there
you should be able to right click deleted items and then click
''empty deleted items ''folder is this not the case?

Do you happen to be running Norton Antivirus or McAfee Antivirus. We've
seen these symptoms quite a bit on systems running those AV programs.

Also, as opposed to Windows Mail, you might try Windows Live Mail which is
still in Beta. Many have resolved this type of issue by moving to Windows
Live Mail.

I did that Marty and nothing happens; sometimes I get a box that says there's
an error too

I have McAffee and I do have the other emails you mention, but OutLook is my
main email.

Judy, try disabling McAfee, if that doesn't resolve it, try uninstalling it,
rebooting and see if you can then delete the mails.

So, if I'm understanding you, these e-mails are stuck in Outlook? If that
is the case and the above doesn't resolve the issue, you might want to try
this question in the microsoft.public.outlook or outlook.general newsgroup.

You're welcome, Judy, good luck.
