Unable to delete all mail from deleted folder

When I select delete on an e-mail in my deleted folder, I get an unable to
delete message stating "an error has occured" This happens on 95% of my
deleted mail. How do I get rid of these e-mails????

Hi RH,

This will help show you how to fix the stuck undeletable email message problem in Windows Mail for all folders.

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.

Re: Unable to delete all mail from deleted folder

You need to either update to Vista SP1
(http://windowshelp.microsoft.com/Win...svistasp1.mspx) or
install this patch (http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/941090).
Either will fix the issue.
