Solution for : can't delete email from inbox :

[Guest]

Rebuild the database...don't worry you won't loose any wanted email...
(The undeletable emails are really ghosts...)

1.) Close all instances of WinMail.
2.) Check Task manager (Processes and Applications) for msimn.exe...not
there? Good!
3.) Start > Search > Advanced Search ****Check the box to include
non-indexed, hidden and system files.***** In the Name field type
WindowsMail.MSMessageStore and click the Search. May be slow...be patient.
4.) At the end it should show you entries. Delete both of them. Windows Mail
will rebuild.
5.) Re-open WinMail.
6.) Tada!!! Nice and tidy!

Besides that, the program to look for is NOT msimn.exe, it'e winmail.exe and
you have to look under both Applications and Processes. The Microsoft patch
is much better.
