    You can't delete any folders supplied by Windows Mail.
    Furthermore, Windows Mail does not take kindly to integration
    with third party security programs. You may not notice any bad
    effects at first, but eventually there will be massive corruption.

    Hi angelbear,

    In addition to Gary's post.

    When you get the stuck email problem from having the antivirus program integrated with it's email options, this will show you how to fix the stuck undeletable email message problem:

    Installing the KB941090 update will just fix the problem for now. You must stop the cause to prevent it from happening again. Read the section titled "FIRST" in this tutorial about antivirus and anti-spyware/adware programs to help prevent this from happening again, then install the KB941090 Microsoft Update in the section titled "SECOND" to fix and be able to delete the stuck message from the problem folder.
