| | Re: Can't delete some emails You could try manually deleting the files. Close WLM then Go to :- C:\Documents and Settings\[Windows User]\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Windows Live Mail In windows explorer. In that folder you should see a list of all your accounts. Select the account where you can't delete the email then select the inbox folder (if that's where the email is residing). If as you say there's no email body, just the message then the easiest thing to do is to put the list of all your emails into details view in windows explorer. Then sort then based on their file size. The two header only emails should have a very small file size. You can open the .eml files in notepad by right clicking on them and select open with notepad. Do this to make sure that the files you away to delete are the actual ones that's causing you problems.

| | Re: Can't delete some emails What folder are the messages in? Is it a storage folder, or one of your mail accounts? If a mail account, is it a POP3, IMAP or HTTP (Hotmail)? Can you copy or move the message to another folder? -- Mike - http://pages.prodigy.net/michael_santovec/techhelp.htm "_adrian" <test@ test.com> wrote in message news:#hG5SafwIHA.516@xxxxxx Quote: > So there are two emails that I've received into Live Mail that I can't > delete out.. it looks like the body/content of the email is actually > gone, but the header/label still shows up in the list, and I can't do > anything about them.
