what is the fix? This just happend with new laptop using Vista basic.
All I get is an unknown error has occurred.
 
THANK YOU!! i have been hunting for days for something that would fix my
inbox! The fix says that it's for messages stuck in your outbox, but i had
several that wouldn't delete from the inbox and it has worked great. Thank
you so much!!
 
I can't delete my mail indox nor deleted mail and I get that unknown error
has occurred message what should I do?
 
I cannot delete message in my inbox either and it definitely is from reliable
source, one I email regularly. Really fed up not being able to delete. Any
advice please?
Thanks

Try reading other people's answers to problems with deleting email
(even in other folders). Someone gets an answer a few times a day.
 
The solution to this problem is posted here a few dozen times each day.
Did you read the responses to posts similar to yours?
Microsoft's fix is available here:

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/941090
"Messages may be stuck in the Outbox when you use Windows Mail on a
computer that is running Windows Vista"

Although Outbox is the only folder mentioned, it will remove stuck
messages from all folders.

I think the poster does not have a stuck E-mail and may just be explaining
it badly.
I have a message delete problem too but it is not a stuck E-mail.
I'll try and explain my problem, and the poster can confirm if their problem
is the same.

My ISP is BT Yahoo who provide a filter system that shuffles junk-mail into
a bulk folder.
However, if I, "check all", messages and click, "Delete", no deleting takes
place.
If I uncheck ANY one message and then click, "Delete", it undeletes the
selected messages but I have to actually open the remaining message to be
able to delete it.
Summing up - delete works fine but will not delete all posts at once and
will not delete a single post unless it is opened first.
